New use for a GoPro

[cscotthendry]

G'Day.

 

While doing the annual service on my Nynja, I came up with a new use for my GoPro.

 

I attached it to a monopod and shoved it into the inaccesible areas of my wings and the tail. I got some great pics of the frame, fasteners and bracing cables. The GoPro has a wide angle lens so pointing the camera is not particularly critical. Also since version 3 of the GoPros, they have wifi and can be controlled remotely with an iPad or iPhone. You can also get a preview which helps positioning the camera for the best shot. I'm sure that other sports cameras would be equally useful in this regard.

 

Finally, the pics will be a good comparative reference for the next service.

great idea,, currently rebuilding the carbys, and using the gopro to document every step. didnt think of using them for internal inspections,
