Strato Snapper

Strato Snapper

Only in the US At MiKroKopter.US!!

Ever wondered how everything looked from above? The StratoSnapper will let you take control of your on-board camera. It’s highly configurable via software,
it takes a standard servo input and triggers your camera via the infrared receiver.

"The last Camera Trigger you will ever need! More compatablilty and functionality of any Trigger I have used"   Ziggy

It comes with a software utility that will allow you to customize everything from video recording, still photo triggering, time-lapse photography, zoom and more. Basically, if your camera supports a command via infrared remote control, so does the StratoSnapper.

Also you can use your own plug and control your wired camera using the included 2 wire cable.

See here for cable

Check out this video of the StratoSnapper in action:

(Decent video setup is definitely on the wish-list here at LittleSmartThings..)

It supports two servo inputs. You could for example have video on/off on one switch, and still-photo trigger on the other. The StratoSnapper also supports traditional wire-trigger, but you have to hack the cable your self. There is a bare-end cable supplied that will plug in to the StratoSnapper, but there is a true jungle of proprietary connectors out there. So for now – this is just a bonus – feel free to play with it. The wire port is completely electrically isolated from the StratoSnapper, so no harm will come to either your camera or the StratoSnapper.

It comes with two servo cables, IR transmitter, and a bare end cable for wire-triggering. We will also throw in some Dual Lock fasteners for easy mounting. No, the euro is not included…

Now full video support for Sony Nex5 and Nex7 cameras..

The Sony NEX5 and NEX7 series is a very popular camera for RC aerial photography and video. And finally the StratoSnapper will now let you take remote control of shutter and video on the NEX. Update your StratoSnapper firmware for free! Get the StratoSnapper from our distributors or right here.

It took some digging to reverse engineer the protocol for the NEX, but we, at LittleSmartThings are very much looking forward to putting the new video on/off feature to good use. This has also been the number one request from customers for a while. No more endless clips our RC birds just sitting on the ground.

The new feature adds to the ever growing list of supported cameras and functions and the version 0.24b of the StratoSnapper utility will also bring some updates to Pentax cameras and some other minor bugfixes. Download it now!
