I looked up one that was for sale, and the manufacturer name was the name of the builder, but the model was "AIRCAM"
 
When an experimental aircraft is built, the model designator is established by the manufacturer, which is not aircam, but the builder. In other words, one who builds an aircam, RV, or any other "homebuilt," can call it whatever they want, because they are the manufacturer. Many home builders simply call the aircraft by the kit manufacturer's name...but they could just as easily call it the Dingworthy Special, or the Bob-One.

Check the aircraft data plate, and the airworthiness certificate. The airworthiness certificate represents the birth certificate for that airplane, including its' legal name.

You're better off putting "aircam" or whatever the name of the aircraft is (as given by the builder), rather than putting an obscure designator (which probably does not exist), in your logs.

...what is that gonna look like in my log book? thanks for your help!!
Based on the spell-checker smoke checking itself when I had it review your post, the outcome looks badly for you regardless of your experimental flying time.
