RS cosworth? yes it would have been heavier and more expensive but they could have squeezed a wee bitty more out of the engine they already had the ST so why try to make it "affordable" and "sensible" YAWN

youve got me confused now

so if decided to have rampant and unrelenting doggy style with kind of like then i would be a happy happy man its just missing 4wd for me and thats it, i could live with it being a focus then becasue it is set apart properly from a focus st. they could have been onto some proper old RS territory with 4WD. would have been a legend

owned a focus ST with 5 million horse power i still wouldnt be tempted again, i'd rather lose my right testicle to an unfortunate and painful pencil/pocket penetration accident.

woop me and sarnie join the dark side

ok so got to be 17 then

Can i add your daughter? seems sarnie beat me to it don't think she's added him cos he's old n married anyway it's about time you guys guessed her age ????? prob about 15 depending on how old the pics are. but then im not grey and in a wheelchair like sarnie so it aint that bad for me

Can i add your daughter? seems sarnie beat me to it

i just read that, you cant be actually serious??

i love that car, very nice

if you wanted to use it as a webcam you can and just plug the USB into your car computer. you dont need to modify anything for that. but then you can already buy a webcam for a tenner and would be more reliable so webcam imo isnt its strong point.

The charging just be carefull with, the picture from the previous page is after 10 hours. These batteries are used all the time by model air craft, digital cameras etc etc etc. they are not dangerous unless used improperly. basically all the stuff you read on the side of a normal battery like dont short, pierce or burn. REALLY dont do these things. And your fine, dont worry to much, just keep an eye on things and be sensible. the external power supply is probably the first thing i will do, all it is, is a simple voltage regulator connected up to a cig lighter plug, tbh it may be possible just to use one from a tom tom or such like if the voltage is right saving alot of effort, i will have a play. another thing to mention is that these cameras are quite sensative to crap memory cards, i imagine as there is limited buffering inside. if you find the date stamp in the corner flickering its probably due to a cheap midcro SD card bought from shebay

colin i love your sig we did all laugh when we saw pimm cleaning in the dark and then all fell silent as we realised this was probably a smart idea

Ok guys i had a tad of insomnia last night so i have actually read litterally everything there is on the web about the cameras The basic idea is that these cameras are probably made from the reject bins of mobile phones, that includes the camera itself and the processor chip etc. they know this because there are still some left over bits of code for ringtones and graphics residing within the unit. The unit is not branded because it doesnt follow internationally recognised legal requirements and is unreliable. A few items i'd like warn people to be carefull with when playing are; overcharging of the batteries as this can be dangerous and there is the possibility that these units do not have protection from this (hence the picture on the previous page). Also the clam shell case is manufactured with a higher than legally acceptable quantity of lead. The legal limit is set to ensure the saftey of those under the age of 12, so for us adults its pretty safe. bear in mind that for the lead to be poisonus it really needs to be ingested where the stomach acids can affect it. So for safety dont leave the units out for children to chew and dogs to swallow. With those two out the way, onto the playing! The reason so many people are having fun playing with these unit is that they are super cheap! so got greedy and bought four knowing i'd want to have a play. yes you could get hold of a 1 cell LiPo battery and wire it in in its place, just pick one with a higher mAh rating and your away. LiPo batteries are very sensetive and need charged using the correct manner or they will combust, under no circumstances connect the battery to anything other than a proper LiPo charger. Digital cameras just happen to use such chargers so if you do your research and know what your doing you can charge the keycam using one of these (they only cost a few quid) the benefit of this is that the USB charging facility on the keycam is poor and doesnt put a full charge in the battery where as a digital camera one will. if you mean an external power feed? this is possible, you would need a power supply that is regulated at about 3.7V-4.1V and a capacitor across for smoothing. A simple voltage regulator circuit would make this possible. you could then take the battery out completely. as for the buttons, yes you could desolder then and add a length of wire to extend the button, how far you can get away with this cable travelling is anybodies guess as there will be a volt drop over a large distance eventually rendering the button useless. trial and error for this one im afraid this is actually possible if you have a in car PC as the device can operate as a webcam, it will not record sound in this mode though. and i want a BJ from angelina jolie personally i am going to make a project of this next week because i didnt realise i have the week off and booked the dentist right in the middle of it i'll publish it as i go along for a bit of fun hopefully there's some questions answered there

got a bargain

A further thought considering there aren't proper instructions for these cameras and the design is cheap. Do not leave the camera on charge for extended periods. eg.10 hours this is what happens just play safe

can i just add at this point, please do not put the camera in the engine bay or on the hot exhaust! LiPo batteries will set on fire with excessive heat

after some reading i think it has a 4gb recording limit, thereafter you need to start recording again. there would be no problem opening it up and changing the small 3.3V LiPo battery for a larger capacity single cell LiPo but it of course it wouldnt fit back together and you would need some way to protect the LiPo as they can be explosive if treated badly.

held pending payment and collection

u going to share build or sell? tbh the parts have become specialist order so theres not much point in putting a how to up becasue no one can get the bits to build it i'll sell a few but it was more an excersise to see if i could do it. dont really know how much interest there'd be really ,mmmm to be honest I'd say it would cost a fair ammount just in time... I'd be interested if the price is right which it wont be! (not saying that in a bad way but for me to afford it I'd need to put in the manhours myself I'd say) probably 450 tbh

utterly appalling the parents should be put in a smoke filled room untill they suffocate It says further up the cost is £3.78 a day not sure how they figured that one out then. some professional journalism there. what annoys me most is they sent people to take pictures of it. pathetic

the rear ones im alredy building awaiting some parts just now but already half way done. they wont dance like a stupid xmas tree though

happy birthday mart
