Ouch.... no glue... that is what I like about GoPro lot's of good firm mounting gizmos.... I use the N-Struts and the Cabane struts... as well as the handgrips to mount the camera... in a couple of the shots you can see me wearing one strapped to my head.
I'm working up footage to use in a video about flying the Stearman... trying to figure out what to do about real actors<g>.....

Gunny, I was just thinking . . .
One of the first shoots we did for Wings To Adventure was at Bourland Field, out of your hangar, with your Stearman.
Shooting out of the side of the A36, we had a brand new, "High Definition!" $120,000 camera mounted to a gyro. Great video, to be sure.
Now, we use GoPro cameras, shooting in HD, which we get by the bag at Best Buy. Pretty amazing.

gunny Scott, I was inspired by yours, so I took my 71 year old lady on a ride yesterday morning. It happened to be her birthday: October 5 (1940). Your music was still in my ears. She's a Waco ZPF7, but all the rest is the same.. Sweet video. nicely none! Fred
