Judging from the responses, it seems there are large numbers of those who have never done spins or gotten spin training. That's too bad. Highly recommended training and experience! And don't just do it once and never again. Stay current!

I wonder if anyone without spin or aerobatic trainng would care to comment.
Watching those videos, comparing a spin to the left, or spin to the right, do you find one way more comfortable to watch than the other?
Most people who fly aeros find one way more comfortable than the other, but I am curious if mon aerobatic pilts have a preference, and is it apparent just from a video?

Great Video Stephen. Will be a great help for others wanting to see how RV's handle.
I have just started using my Gopro with aerobatics in my RV7, and nervous about mounting it on the wingtip. What mount are you using, and any advice or cautions you may have? I have suction cup and the 3M sticker mounts. So far have only mounted the camera on the shield and only used it 3 times. Will look into the editing software you suggest, as the video quality you show seems much better, and I am only using iMoive



Thanks

Use a screw in a sticky mount... no sticky...
 
I use a regular base but not the sticky back... just drill and countersink as needed for the wingtip or wherever you want to mount it where there is an existing screw ;)
