Add maybe another 25grams for the mounting bay..... yes... yes.... this is most doable.  |
So, maybe allow about 3.25 oz for the full package, including padding and "sloppy construction"...
Here's the results:
For the Double-D, we get 1654'.
For the Triple-D, we get 2283'.
In all of the simulations, with and without the camera package, I've averaged about 600' higher with the Triple-D. That's a farily good difference for the difference in power of one D12 motor.
Yes, I think this is a do-able project. I may have to break down and order a camera package myself just for this.
