I'd like to get some good Go Pro footage of the upcoming WCR drive and require some input from those in the know. I bought the Go Pro white last summer and have only used it a couple of times. So I ask, where are the optimum mounting locations. I'd like to get some engine noise so where would you mount it? It came with lots of mounts; eg suction cup and stick on hard mount tabs. Do you trust your camera hanging on the outside. What about wind noise? Anyway around that other than dubbing in music? There won't be another chance to record 914's in masse during my lifetime so I want to get it right! TIA, Kent

I have always used the inside upper-center windshield area, upside-down. (You set the camera for this.) This gives a good panoramic view of the driver's field of vision and the front-end of the car.

I like the idea of mounting it on the front windshield and will do so. Also, the long USB cable is a good tip. See ya'll there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
