@crudboy12 4 года назад

You could install a GPS and get ground-speed as well as barometric altitude and feed it into something like an Arduino so that it could tilt the camera and calculate lead. It's a project I have wanted to attempt for a long time. I need to build a big plane first so it could actually carry something impressive. I will definitely post it to youtube if I can get something working.

You should install a bunch of super bright white LEDs inside the box to flood it with light, then fill it with glow-in-the-dark items, and drop them at night. Have some on parachutes, let some free fall, and tie streamers to others, to vary the rate of descent of the various objects.
