Default Formation video

All,
I finally figured out how to invert the image, make a movie and post it on youtube. The video is from the past weekend over Mojave, CA for the fly-in. It was only my second time in the slot. I have a lot to learn yet. The camera is an HD170 mounted on the side of my helmet.

Axel, great video!

Do you have the Stealth version of the HD170? If so, I recommend setting the frame rate to 50 or 60 and your prop will show up smoother.

Great video, but how about a little Sinatra? Kidding. Flying slot is my fave. Really enjoyed your video.

I like the presentation with the camera mounted to your helmet. Could the camera also be mounted to a headset?

I checked and it has 25 and 30. It is set to 30 right now. maybe in a different resolution it has different frame rates. Will check into it.

I am sure it you can figure out a way. i spent over an hour trying to come up with an elegant mounting solution and at the end I used zip ties.
