SpaceX Falcon 9 Model Launch with Onboard Camera

First launch of my Falcon 9 with Fairing model, with onboard camera (Runcam HD). I had used a JollyLogic chute release to delay parachute deployment, but things didn't quite go as to plan...

Because the launch wasn't entirely vertical, it ended up going ballistic and ended up turning into a lawn dart and taking a nice dirt core sample :)

Fortunately though there was only minimal damage and I was able to recover the parachute as well. I was even able to recover the footage even though the SD card had popped out of the camera due to the force of the impact.

Cool footage!! How did you attach the camera to the body? (Did you use a camera shroud?) What kind of motor did you use?
