I would think any Gopro camera would work.

This is shot using Devo04. Cheap ($25 USD) and can be used with other 5.8Ghz video system

Bit of a late reply. Rather than an expensive GoPro, try one of the Chinese copies, they are only around £60, and come with a mountain of mounting brackets etc. They are excellent quality, have waterproof cases, and have survived on a motorcycle for thousands of miles, so are vibration proof.

Nowt to do with tanks, but I use one on my motorcycle. I have used an SJ3000, and an SJ4000, and both are excellent.

Another option, is to get hold of a cheap camcorder. Remove the upper turret from an old tank, and mount the camera on the turret base. That way you can drive it around a battlefield and take movies at ground level, and also rotate the camera using the tx to turn the turret. I used to make some excellent tank movies that way.
