What's a little worrisome is the availability date was "Soon", then "February 2012," then "March 2012"... It may be worth letting someone else figure out the bugs in the first release :-)

Go Pro is supposed to be releasing a wireless remot "any day now." That
will really make it useful for the sorts of shots we want to do...

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.
