xrs135 Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Just a short video from cruising around this afternoon. Since today is Black Friday, I was able to get another Go-Pro at a really good price... so my videos will soon have ATC audio and a cockpit view. Looking forward to that! 8 Quote
Oscar Avalle Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Nice video! What was the nature of the emergency of the other plane? Quote

I'm not really sure... it was a King Air, and they kept saying how the runway was going to shut down, and that they were going to need to be towed off and into the ramp. It looked like they rolled out just fine though... Maybe some sort of nose wheel steering failure? Or maybe something that required them to shutdown both engines immediately after landing? 1 Quote
Shadrach Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Great video! This brings back memories. I've skied Mt Rose many times and driven 431 countless times. It's just as striking from the air! Quote

carusoam Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Wonderful. I like the shadow of the tail with the camera hanging from it....(momentary) Thanks for sharing, -a- Quote
flyboy0681 Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 It was actually quite majestic. Quote

I had no idea what you meant by referencing the theme song of Where Eagles Dare... but after a little bit of YouTube familiarization, it all makes sense now! 1 Quote
bonal Posted November 29, 2015 Report Posted November 29, 2015 One of my favorite opening scenes. Your video reminded me of it. Quote
gsxrpilot Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 Nice work. So you mounted the camera under the horizontal stabilizer? I'm curious as to which GoPro it is and are you using the regular sticky mount? Quote
Chocks Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 Beautiful video! Colors rendered out very nicely. Quote

I just recently got one of the new Hero4 Sessions (super small) and I'm going to give that a try sometime in the near future. As far as mounting, it's the supplied 3M sticky mount on the left, forward, underside of the horizontal stabilizer. 1 Quote

I have the ATC cable and put it inside. However, if I record without powering the Gopro, just recording the video and ATC and intercom, it works GREAT! If I try to power the go pro via the ATC cable, I get a ridiculous amount of alternator whine or something from the engine. I was just wondering you have experienced the same. It would be nice to be able to power the go pro via the cable to keep recording longer than an hour or two. - Joshua Quote
