Default Inside Cockpit Mounting of GoPro cameras ?

I was very interested in the recent posts about using HD video cameras in soaring. Several examples were shot from what appeared to be behind the pilots right shoulder.



Where and how is the camera mounted? Photos of the mount would be useful.



I have done many videos with the GoPro some with the head mount kit from GoPro, some cup mounted externally on the wing or stab. Lately I have done most just holding the GoPro in one hand. The handheld results are usually pretty good.



Any comments about internal mounting would be appreciated.



Thanks,

Hi Jim, I just gathered a little nerd selection of my GoPro setup and posted them here. It took a little time building my cup mount, but it's very flexible and doesn't require the GoPro housing. ... Aaron
