Trent,

Cmos can be prone to problems in high vibration situaions or when you have the prop in the picture: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVwmtwZLG88

Just a thought,

Great show,

If you invest in a 900Mhz video set up you'll potentially run into problems if ever you decide to add telemetry. The xbees run at 900mhz.

Personally, I'm waiting for this to arrive in the mail:
