gentLED-videoREC -videoZOOM, -PHOTO: RC Camcorder control

gentLED-videoREC controls the video start/stop from a standard Radio Control (RC) system, or by any switch contact via the "blue wire". Comes with a 25cm (10") 3-pin standard servo lead & weighs 4grams.
Features include:
false trigger prevention: The RC signal needs to be sent for 0.75seconds (hold the "joy-stick" in position) to prevent any system noise causing false triggering of video.
switch operation: This is an extra blue wire to the device which if shorted to black triggers the device . This allows triggering with either a RC channel, and/or any device that can short two wires together.

gentLED-videoZOOM allows control of the zoom via another channel on the servo controller. This channel is center biased (like a standard RC control stick) and pushing the stick in either direction will zoom in and out. Comes with a 25cm (10") 3-pin standard servo lead, & weighs 4grams.

gentLED-PHOTO controls the photo control on the Camcorder allowing stills to be captured whilst recording video. It can be triggered directly from a standard Radio Control (RC) system, or by any switch contact via the "blue wire". Comes with a 25cm (10") 3-pin standard servo lead, & weighs 4grams. Features are:
continuous operation: This allows multiple pictures to be taken if the RC servo control is held down. This is useful if you want the camera to keep taking pictures approximately every 5 seconds.
switch operation: This is an extra blue wire to the device which if shorted to black triggers the device . This allows triggering with either a RC channel, and/or any device that can short two wires.
