Is the camera view toward the rear? In that case I would put it near the
base of the rocket. That way you get more of a view of what's behind the
rocket and less of the rocket itself.

Subject: [roc-chat] Placement of Camera Pod - L3 Project - Near Aft End or
Further Forward?

 

Attached are a couple of pictures of a camera pod I'm planning on attaching
to my L3 project.  I will be using a "Booster Vision" cameras which fits
perfectly in a 29mm tube and can be retained by a 29mm Aero Pack motor
retainer.  The question is, does it matter where this is placed.  My project
should be "over stable" and weight is not a big factor on this one.  That
said I'd appreciate feedback about whether to place this near the aft end or
further up on the rocket.  I'm interested in feedback about both the best
construction technique and the best place to get a good video.  Close to aft
end or further forward.
