I finally had a little time to finish the RX0 project. The camera fit in a small weatherproof housing with the controller, a couple AA batteries and a internal passive IR motion sensor.

The red printed circuit board controls the camera and lets the photographer set the length of the recorded video, video or stills, day only, night only, 24/7 operation, how many images per motion event and activate a remote video light. There are also settings for PIR sensitivity.

The two black foam covers are external microphones. This should greatly enhance the recorded audio.

The camera trap is in the field for a few days. I will post the results.

Edit......just checked the camera trap. The stock battery lasted for 105 fifteen second videos.
