From Alexander Buick our Network member who recommended this product!
The Estes Astrocam is a simple, easy to use piece of technology on your next rocket launch. It is essentially a camera for your rocket with a built-in USB connector to allow you to plug it directly into your computer after launch. It is very beginner friendly however my one criticism is that I don’t trust the resources it gives you will ensure it doesn’t fall off your rocket. To prevent this, I duct-taped it onto the rocket. Another thing to note is it has a 30min battery life, so if you accidentally leave the camera running and wait too long to launch it may die before launch. In the footage I got from it below, the moment it stopped was the moment the camera battery died.
