I saw that there was not many from sweden so here is my home dropzone. I should compile a kmz for sweden too. But not today.

Sorry but its in swe: http://mikrodatorn.idg.se/2.1030/1.80289 well its really noting new. just memorycard with a paralell ata.

Im thinking of making a RadioControled-parachute in the size of 1:2 or 1:4. It would be fun to have a "real" pattern for the parachute. with real I mean a pattern from a existing parachute. The thing is that it will probably will be hard to get one from PD or the other. I didnt get it from PdF so I guess the other companys will respond the same. But I will send out a message to them anyway. If that fails. Is there anyone out there with a pattern I can use? Any tips and trix? /Robin robin(a)acc.umu.se

I need a viewer that can play the skydive movies in slowmotion. And I mean like .AVI .MPG and so on. Is there any viewers that can do that or can I find some plugin to do that. I don't want to buy premiere and make all movies to slowmo. I just want a simple viewer that can play the movies in slowmowtion.

You are right about that. But my guess is that this camera weight about half as a ip camera and cost just a 1/10 of a ip. And yes it lack of memory. Yes The IP is MUCH better but try to see where I want to go. -Not expensive -Light weight -Find the products that can give sony PC/IP a match No question about it. I like the IP camera. But I think you could go one step further. /Robin

And just when you hit the reply button you find the big broter. http://www.aiptek.com/products/digital/dv2.htm Ok, and I should add that this camera isn't the solution either. But its gettning better. Its only the begning! /Robin

Its me again. And Yes I don't jump with a camera yet. The thing is that I have seen too many people with bad necks from videoskydiving. I saw a product just now. Its not great or even good but the ide is there. http://www.aiptek.de/produkte/pocket_dv.html http://www.provantage.com/scripts/go.dll/-s/fp_70042 /Robin

I have just bought a digitalcamera(cheap 80$, not jumpable) and the idea when they made this camera probably was to create a camera that is small(its about as big as a creditcard but thicker 0.09Ibs) and can take digital pictures and some videoclips. That is just all it can. No display or extra memoryslots. When i opend it up I saw just a circutboard,battery and a lens. Just think, if you could build a minimalistic videocamera an put it on your head. It would just be able to do the needy stuff. Record some video and be light and cheap. Not having moveable parts just a memory where you store your clips. No autofocus, No nightvision or any other crap that you dont use when you skydive. A minimalistic videocamera. What stuff do you think we need to build that kind of camera? Memory: Of some kind, where we store the videoclips USBport: To be able to download the clips to a computer. ON/OFF switch: As it says. Battery: So it all work. Lens and sensor: The little thing that makes the circutboard see. Circutboard: Were everything is mounted. Not nesserary the lens and sensor. How big is this gona be? Not to big I think. Can it fit into my helmet? Later on when we look in to the futures future I think we could make it transmit video down to the ground in real time. (I know that this equipment exist but Im not a billionare) And some questions to ask ourself: Does it need any more stuff? What problems do we face? And as a last question, Does this thing already exist on the market to a low price? Think about it!
