Can anyone recommend a camera bracket/mount that can be used inside or

Check around anyone who has been gliding competitively for more than 15
years and you will probably find they have camera mounts for canopy rails
in their junk box. Ensure that your mount stands off far enough from the
canopy for telescopic lens to open out (or you will b*gger the camera!)


The OP can correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect he's looking for a
more universal mount than one that only aims at a wing tip. Try here
for starters:
