Nice Video
This video gives me a feel of what an arrival at Osh is like - seeing the other planes in the queue, listening to the controller and everything.
Thanks.

I agree. That is what I find most useful about the video. It provides a sense of "experience" for those who have never made that approach before.

Thanks for posting. Had no idea how good the VIRB is. That is awesome. Great way to review an OSH arrival if you've never done one.

Garmin VIRB
On the second viewing I realized that in addition to the typical groundspeed, heading altitude, etc. the lower right corner shows a ground track which I found very interesting!
Very nice video, and Woo-Hoo on the Cessna pilot who got sent to the lake!

Great Video!
For someone who has never flown to Oshkosh, the Notam arrival comes to life with your clip. Thanks! Makes me feel like maybe I can fly there myself next year!
p.s. No GoPro for me -- Love the Garmin..... They should give you some advertising pay for this clip.... very well done....
thanks for sharing

Great video, thanks for posting. I have a Virb myself, and I have posted a video or two here. Although I didn't get main page exposure
If you are not trying to record audio, I have had success taking the included curved plate mount, drilling and countersinking a hole in the middle, and attaching it to the wing by removing a tank screw and installing with a longer screw. From the outboard screws and with a setting of "ultra zoom" the plane is not even visible in the shot. Stable video with no signs of the camera breaking loose even at normal RV-9A cruise speeds.
Also, for the aerobats, the camera has an accelerometer and a G meter can be overlaid on the video as well.
Anyone who is interested can follow this link to my youtube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcA...uC6fdqIuV5OZCA
Not trying to piggyback views, just showing the potential of this camera. Thanks.

For those interested in the VIRB software ‘overlays' used in this neat clip, here is a screen grab of my computer showing some of the overlay choices (in grey down at the bottom of the pic linked below):

You can also pick and choose which ones you want.

I noticed that the altitude was displayed in tenths. I have enough trouble holding to a hundred. |
