.
Zippy batt starting at 4.10v avrg per cell not fully charged. I think a 3000 to 3500 battery may get the chubby hoverbota cool 7-8min.
.
I have now tilted the Kodak up and added dense closed cell foam wrap pad to back of cam.
Kodak ccd is a 50/50 iris so that is why II raised cam, a close seagull flyby pan was missed because of angle :o(

    I have now mounted the glass fisheye lens direct to Kodak zi6 chip board after shimming focus and it is as good or maybe even a bit better than 1st gen Gopro now. Test flight Tues, I am starting to strip the 1080p Playtouch as well and will add the glass lens. Next battery? 4000mah
