STEALTH CAM DIGRC-XTR UPDATE

RE: STEALTH CAM DIGRC-XTR UPDATE
Hey guys,
Well, I still havn't heard anything from Stealth Cam. I e-mailed them Tuesday and it says that they will get back to you the following day.
I moved my feeder tonight, I put it further back into the woods closer to a bedding area, and I set the camera up with new batteries. I took my time to make sure that the unit was set-up perfectly. I am gonna leave it go till Monday and see what happens. If I am not satisfied Monday, I am getting rid of it and building my own. I have found some plans for a unit using a Sony P41 Camera that supposidly has a awsome flash and a very fast load time! Plus, it will cost less than $300 to put together this unit.
I'll let you guys know how this all plays out. I am really ticked off right now as I have been seeing alot of bucks on my property. Tuesday night I went and sat on the roof of my house to watch our field and I saw 5 bucks, 1 doe, 2 fawn, and a skunk. Out of the 5 bucks I saw, 1 was a small 4 point, 1 was a small 6 point, 2 were small 8 points about 15" wide, and I saw a BIG 8 point come out. He is probablly close to 20" wide already, his brow-tines looked to be close to 6 or 7 inches, his G-2's looked to be in the 10-11" range, and his G-3's appeared to be in the 8-9 inch range with a really heavy rack and long main beams. He has a nice high rack that all curves in. Hopefully this Stealth Cam can redeem itself and I get a pic of that big boy.

Well, I just sent my third e-mail to Stealth Cam. I will let you all know what happens.
Nubo, I wouldn't worry about the MC2-G. I had two of them and I loved them. The picture quality was great, the camera was reliable, and the camera is tough.

HH1 Board............................................. . $ 50.00

This is what I have seen as a list of parts. I am not entirely sure if anything else is really needed or not.

BM,
You only need one 1" circle glass. Get a Flash Enhancing lense for in front of the camera flash.
You probably want to get a Python lock and some U bolts to secure the camera to a tree. Go to OfficeMax this week and get a P41. They are on sale for $150. There is also a thread on Hag's that I started, "You heard it here first", telling you how you can get the camera cheaper yet with Internet coupons.
