Onboard DVR?

Has anyone worked out an onboard DVR solution for HDZero yet? Considering analog onboard DVRs exist, It seems like with the way the Eco and Lux cameras connect, it would be possible to record their signal with an analog onboard DVR, and then decode that signal after the fact on a computer or something. I guess analog DVRs are going to be encoding that signal into a lossy digital format though, so perhaps the HDZero signal would be unrecoverable. I don't know.

All I know is that is would be nice to have a way to record the HDZero camera signal onboard, to have a decent static-free recording without needing the weight of an action camera!

I've been having a lot of fun flying my little FPV drones recently, and am wondering if there are any other pilots / groups in the Virginia Beach area. All my stuff is pretty small (biggest uses 45mm props), analog and HDZero, and I've only done casual flying / freestyle. I've mostly just flown in a few of the nearby parks, and around my house. It would be fun to get together, and fly with some other folks.

I'd also like to see what some other RC controllers feel like in the hand, since I have some ergonomics challenges with mine (GX12) that I've been trying to work out. I use more or less a pinch / hybrid grip, and find it can be somewhat awkward to reach the full gimbal range while still feeling like I've got a good grip on the controller. Since I'm still fairly new, it would be useful to know if this is still just a matter of getting used to it, or if perhaps a different controller layout would be a better fit for me.
