Camroc 808 (Tribute)

Camroc 808, a tribute!

In 1966 Estes Industries offered the Camroc, the first commercially produced camera designed to be carried aloft by a model rocket. For most kids it was overly complicated to use and to get good results but the opportunity to see the world from the view of your rocket drove many to send the Camroc aloft.

If you want to read more about the original Camroc - here's a great blog to read
