would it be a good starter cam for rc recording, it'll be mounted to an rc monster truck

This device is too big for an rc. This is for a vehicle. Maybe try a GoPro if this is your preference. Works well in that respect.

I wouldn't advise buying this product at all for no purpose, it didn't last me two months, I replaced it and highly recommend the Cobra CDR-810, it has worked sense the fall of last and still going strong. They all will have there up's and down's and my response to you involve the two Iv'e had the pleasure of using, good luck.

It could. It is light enough. It needs a flat surface about 3-4" around to mount the suction cup. Just be careful about the justling.

Not really. It is designed as a flexible and good recording/webcam. There is nothing that activates it through motion. It is very good at what it does but I think you may be better served with something designed to a surveillance camera's specific job...

I'm not really sure. I hooked it to a camera that looks like a fire alarm sensor to cover a break area to catch a vending machine vandal. I'd think it would record from any type of camera if you use the right connectors. I can tell you it is not built for the elements so would have to stay in a van or indoors. Wish I could be more help.

This would be a perfect vehicle to mount a GoPro camera on to capture wildlife. The vehicle has a top speed of about 5mph, however, it is controllable down to less than 1 mph). No upgrades would be required other than the mount to add the camera.

You would be better of with a good quality webcam and use your own or make your own brackets. These cameras are iffy at best, and you are paying for the bracket not the quality of the camera. I switched to a better nice HD camera for under this price by logitec. Quality is great on the Logitec and comes with software and great options. Good luck.

You might consider a DASH CAM, as i believe those have internal batteries that charge while driving, and can still record while parked.

I would not use this for video work. The head is not very fluid so you can not track well.

It should work just fine. Bear in mind that the camera will be upside down. You may have to stand on your head to watch the resulting videos! LOL! Have fun!

Have used this videocam at nite as a car dash camera and on my bike. So far have no problems. Better than my obsolete go pro hero I that I have over used for over 2 years. The built-in video screen will give you the answer to your question too.

Run the software that come with it.. It has a basic Dvr... The quality isn't the best but it is a great cam for the price Tpg

Personally, any name brand car-back-up cam will do. So if you like brands like Sony, JVC, Panasonic, Kenwood, Alpine, etc. just read up on reviews and look for the best price. Don't worry too much about "video" quality. The video screens on cars usually are not HD and from what I remember, none of the back-up cams are in HD either.Hope that helps!

This actually has nothing to do with your car. This is a stand-alone 'spy' camera that is in a case that looks like a car remote. So you can put it on your key-chain and use it to record video without it looking like you have a camera. I don't use mine for that - I actually just wanted a very small video camera to put on a remote control helicopter. I removed the insides from the car remote case and velco'ed them to my helicopter. It takes reasonable video and is very small/light.

Yes it would do nicely as a nanny cam. You can schedule it to take photos or record video on motion, sound, or both. You will need a storage device however for this if you wanted to record. Otherwise you can use it as a webcam to check in anytime you desire.

It's a great little camera. You can mount it anywhere that's structurally sufficient and that you have a path to run your wires. Good luck.

Mark; I think it would be excellent for recording. However, I found the manual to be difficult to understand for some functions. Perhaps the SR16 from Alesis would be a better choice if it has all the functions you need. It's been around for decades and has been very popular.

Probably, but there may be better BU cameras. Skill is required to install wiring - expect to pay a specialty shop $2-300. Despite considerations I would do it again for my low slung corvette convert

for video recording, i lasted as much as i needed. Longest i used it for was close to 5 min using a class 10 32gb card. I think it records plenty though so it should be good for +5min vids. I did have my battery drained much faster too so keep that in mind. Other than that, yea it's pretty good cam for the price. I getting me a 2nd one which the first one i just had a little scratch on the lens. Hopefully that was helpful! :D
