Build a small & light digital camera using old smartphone parts?
i want to build a small and light camera for my RC helicopter since it doesnt have a camera. I have an old phone which has 2 cameras, but the phone's battery doesnt work anymore, so i figured i could use the camera to build what i want!!

NOT very likely. although your phone has the hardware it is supported by software that is buried in the phones operating system. Without that it won't work.
Trying to replicate would be a nightmare and costly.
Most people go this route

Reverse engineering the digital interface pins on the camera module sounds like a university level project! I would not touch that unless I had a good reason to.
