Default Garmin Virb Tail Tiedown Footage
Just giving you guys a thumbs up for my garmin vIRB experience, I recommend you play with one if you haven't already

used the planearound mount and screwed into my tail tiedown ring, went out for a flight and downloaded footage when i was done, looks great!

Also, if you ever needed a reason to head to destin, maybe this video will give you one!

sorry for the awesome music

Bruno - that does not look live a Van's plane. It probably is his Lancair ES? It is however, a composite aircraft.

correct, I hope Doug is okay with that, anyone with a new perspective or mounting angle for the Virb should be welcome to post here since I know a lot of head scratching is going on with people wanting to fit theirs

mine could not be easier, screw it in, flip it on, and off i go

the speed reading is a little unstable at times but oh well
