Progress…

I’ve decided to do some pretty significant upgrades to my rig before the new year. Now I’m in the lead-time doldrums. Here’s the list:

  • Film & Batteries for the film camera: arrives monday here!
  • Lightweight lens for the film camera: arrives tuesday. here!
  • Custom boards for the controllers: ETA 3 weeks. 1 day!
  • XBee Series 2 Coordinator: ETA 2 weeks. here!
  • Misc. Electronic components: tbd (need to survey what I have)
  • Re-assemble the camera I took the above shot with: tbd.

The goal is to have a film/digital convertible rig running by Jan 1. I should have a roughly 200m range on the controller, and it’ll be about the size of a pack of cigarettes.
