    For more information, click on the ozreport links http://ozreport.com/17.069#1 and http://ozreport.com/17.124#1   One thought I had is that these may not stand up to the speeds and vibration and multiple landings...

      You're welcome Henry, however a boom will accentuate vibration-  are you not going to mount on your Mustang wing any more?

    My gopro is currently mounted high on the mast behind and above me.  I may also try it on the front tube and the control bar.  Another option rather than the helmet is a chest mount.  Xct, i always thought scanning would be an issue...

    Thanks Ken and Crayon Box, Yes Crayon Box, I have seen that and some other videos. It seems when it comes to the richness of the colors the Drift and Contour both offer great colors. I prefer colors over minor detials. Ken, here is the price...

    Rizzy,  did you see this video comparison? http://youtu.be/Ewp9kQoQ1Ng  I see the Contour seems very yellow/green and warm compared to the others. The gopro appears darker but this at least can be adjusted in post, whereas overexposure...

      My gopro is currently mounted high on the mast behind and above me.  I may also try it on the front tube and the control bar.  Another option rather than the helmet is a chest mount.  Xct, i always thought scanning would be an issue with camera on your head.

      I shot a video this morning from the mast that ill post today.  I may do a little colour (aussie) correction, just to see how it looks.  Gopro supply a special bit of free software for this colourisation and resolution modification.   The video will be a first 2013 flight video.

    The remote simply turns the Record function on/off.  So, the camera is turned On during pre-flight, and then to Record (via remote) at any time thereafter.  Naturally, the audio is only recorded while the camera is recording. The Audio...

    Can you explain a little bit more about audio recording? Does the camera have an A/V in port? Can you do wireless audio recording? How effective is turning video on and off with a remote in flight? I was thinking of getting a GoPro3...
