MAKE BFF, I-Wei Huang (aka Crabfu), sent us the link to this simple, cheap camera mod for his Eflite Blade SR 120 micro-heli. It’s even temporary, using zip-ties and tape, so he can switch it back to stock.

The page also has his review of the Blade and a video of some sweet indoor garage flying. Dude: Clean your garage! :-)
