Guys,

Picked up one of those 1/6 scale Stuarts at Wal Mart. Deeply discounted. Wanted to see if I could use the RC stuff for another project. The gear is probably worth more than what I paid.

I had earlier picked up a wireless camera off ebay for my robbe type XXI sub.

So...............

Taped the camera to the top of the tank, turned on the computer and drove the tank around the back yard from inside the house. Really fun to chase the dogs. Whats cool is the video reminds me of driving around button up in a Bradley. I could see the gun tube in one corner of the picture.
