If I put my X10 camera on an small RC plane, could I make it a UAV?

That would be cool wouldn't it? I'd need the battery pack for it (4 AAs') And I'd need to increase the range on the transmitter portion of it ( I'm sure theres a way ) then I'd prolly need to increase the suface area of the recieving antenna. I could put a "dish" behind it to increase sensitivity. Fly it around the feild out where I live and chase the cows with it....

i can't believe you'd supported x10 by buying that camera
they are evil for placing so many damn ads

I actually know someone here at Tech who is an Aerospace Engineer who did something similar to this. Kahn (his name), bought an X10 cam and taped it to his little remote-control plane and used it to tape an intramural football game here. It turned out well.

They may be evil... but they have GOOOOOOOOOOOD looking models... just makes me think nasty thoughts when I see a beautiful girl like that and a small, wireless video camera next to her

a guy in the telecom dept at my job is heavily into R/C Heliocopters. he strapped a video camers to his chopper and got some great shots.
