I made some more progress on the kite camera rig over the weekend. I attached the battery pack to the back and the RF receiver to the L-bracket using those foam mounting squares that are so good at tearing up walls. Then I velcro-ed the servo just above the shutter button so that pushing on the stick will cause it to snap a picture. I had to wrap a rubber band around the servo and camera body; otherwise the servo would simply lift up instead of applying force to the shutter. Finally, I finished up the lingering bits of the Pivacet suspension. So everything is ready to go for the next sunny weekend!
