Re: Camera Taped to my forehead:)

Hi,

I was thinking that would be a good idea, but never tried it - I had thought of using a hat, or helmet, to put the camera on - similar to what you see on some of the reality shows.

The camera certainly was able to follow the plane, once you get it adjusted down a little, I think it will be great.

Thanks for the video.

Fly4Fun,

Wayne

Mike, how about a hardhat for a camera mount? Solid platform for the camera and it will protect your head is case of mishap

I think a bit more rigid mount, like stapling or bolting it to your head would work better

cool vid, thanks for sharing.
