Default On board floatplane video

Hi folks, I have just recieved this link to a video taken from my Practical Scale Piper Pa11 Cub Special, powered by a Zenoah 38. The camera is a GoPro HD fitted inside the roof of the cabin. Need to do some cockpit details now!! The weather was grey and awful but it was my first day off water so had a go anyway.

Cheers, Ian.

This is an old thread on video float flying I just ran across & thought I would throw in this video from this last summer I did at Millerton Lake Ca. It's an old GPs J-3 Cub powered by an Zenoah 26cc gas engine. Floats are SeaPlaneSupply, camera: Contour HD GPS video mounted on an 360 servo inside the cockpit. It was a beautiful day to fly. This is not with FPV. I used the flap dial to control the camera, but once in the air, I had no idea where the camera was pointing. In this video I was lucky to get what I got with some editing! You may have seen it already. I hope you enjoy it, please leave a comment.
