I had originally had this cam in a yeticam kit with a yeti board. Well the board never worked right and I ended up putting in a different board. I chatted with a fella on the homebrew building website and he offered to take a look at it. So I mailed it to him and had it back within a week. He swapped out the chip that was on the board and had it working in about an hour. Lucky for me he didn't charge me one penny. I am very grateful for his generosity. This board will even do videos with sound. I plan on adding some grey to the exterior for a more tree like appearance.

Cool. You could use a foam brush to paint just the high areas. That would give it a good bark camo.
