Re: Newbie with questions



Start with a tall rocket with a wide enough body to hold cameras in the tube.
Attach one camera (looking outward through the side of the rocket body, 
perpendicular to the axis of the rocket) near the tail of the rocket and 
the other (also looking out through the body of the rocket, perpendicular 
to the axis of the rocket) near the tip.  
That way they will be firmly oriented correctly with respect to each other.  
Then set up the parachute to carry the rocket horizontally, with the cameras 
pointing at a slight angle from straight down, as it floats down.  The cameras 
will then be horizontal and at a fixed distance from each other.  Then have the 
camera set to take pictures a few seconds after the body of the rocket 
is horizontal, after the decent has stablized a little bit.

Just a thought.
