Hi gang,
It seems that lots of people are mounting video cameras to take videos of their flights. While I wouldn't be doing it dual, I will (if nothing untoward happens) be licenced in the nearish future and rather like the idea of putting a camera somewhere in the cockpit to record flights. I definitely don't want to mess around putting cameras on the outside of the aircraft though.
So, a few questions:
What sort of camera do you use? I don't own a video camera so would be looking at making a purchase, so advice would be good. Nothing too expensive, but I'd like one that does reasonable/good quality videos. I found an oldish thread talking about 'GoPro Hero', are they still recommended?
Any ideas about how/where to mount it? It'd be in a J160 (at the moment anyway) and I'd like to put it somewhere inside the cockpit. Maybe on the dash? Or clipped onto the back of the RHS seat? Ideas (and ways of actually mounting it) would be good :)
Is there any way of adding audio input (i.e. radio calls) and is it even worth trying to? Or is it just a waste of time bothering with extra cables and such?
Any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks all :)
