    A 360 degree camera mounted on a modified Range Rover at MiniGrid. Click on the screen and move your mouse around to change the camera angle!

    It was my pleasure to be able to drive this rig and I have to say the results are great. 360 a whole new way to think about camera’s on slot cars, among other things. And the final version of the vehicle looks great too. Something right out of what a real Hollywood crane truck looks like!

    We did experiment with different speeds with the camera vehicle and found that running it at about 75% or so gave the best picture. Not too slow to put you to sleep, and not too fast to make you nauseous. Lap times were about equivalent to Cartrix cars with BWA motors.

      The camera platform is a FlySlot truck with a modified Scaley Range Rover mounted on top. Camera above that. Looks like a real Hollywood type vehicle. Real life cameraman and fellow slotter Adam Gladstone is one of the mad minds behind this.

      That is neat. What kind of camera is it?
