Cineroc 1080p 3D Clone

Printed a 3D model that is similar to the Estes Cineroc, but with digital components versus 8mm film. The Cineroc was a revolutionary product that finally put into the hands of amateurs the ability to record onboard video of their rocket flights from the rocket itself during flight.

The 3D model can be found on Thingiverse and the designed is Works-of-Claye. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3155706

I did need to create my own internal camera sled and battery holder, as I didn’t use the same camera components. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F7PF4W9

The 3,000 milliamp battery that came with the camera was physically too large to use, and one negative concerning this camera is the camera battery connector and the battery connector are swapped versus the standard, so I could not find a direct replacement battery. My solution was to unsolder the battery leads from the camera board and direct solder a new replacement 1,000 milliamp battery. I should still get about 2 hours recording time, plenty for this purpose.
