Excellent! was the GoPro inside the plastic case?

Thanks for the supportive comments everyone. It is so fun to share
flights with others. *Yes, the GoPro was using the regular outside
plastic housing. I added an extended battery pack to the back of the
GoPro for around $50. Since a 32 gig card can handle around 3.5 hours
of video, it is always the batteries that die first. *We'll see how
long the regular battery + extended will last together. I will be
thrilled with anything over 3 hours total.

Thanks for the info Bruno................I'm thinking of up-grading to
either the GoPro you are using, or the Drift HD that uses a wireless
remote. The thought is to be able to turn on and off the camera to
save storage and battery for the "exciting" parts of the flight. I
always seem to run out of battery power when I'm racing up and down
the ridges!

I think there is a wireless unit for the GoPro but am not sure about
that.


Brad,

With a GoPro you can record just by turning the camera on and stop by
turning it off. Only one button.
