Yes he can, not a problem.

Even in the wind it's not bad (when it works):

Another friend wants in. He'll be sending a Paypal as well with his info.

Yes, agreed. Wind is your enemy here. Now, the GoPro guidance says to use the sealed back door with wind over 100mph, but I'd say use it over 50mph.

The problem with my in car mounting location is that it is right behind/between the seats and as I am required to run DE with the windows down, the wind is really strong there. The clip above is with the sealed back door.

So, as the GoPRO has no external input for a microphone, that is as good as it gets for that location. Moving it to a calmer location would be a good bet

Now, if I were trying to get the best possible output, I'd run two cameras;
1. Where you can see everything you want
2. out of the wind, near the engine

Then just use the second camera sound for the first camera.

Make sense?

This group buy should result in some great video for everyone to enjoy...

Thirteen paid for, probably make the first order Monday!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet, I have had time to plan some shots on my lunch breaks !!!!

Here is the latest update. I will order these on Monday.

we don't have windows (race car)
hmmm... I'm wondering if there is something out there with an external mic.
need to look around
brant

I will be placing an order for these in about 2 or 3 hours so if you want one need to let me know and pay up or you will have to wait for the second go around. I will find out today how long they will extend this price to me.


Shoe

These cameras have been ordered, the first 15 anyway, & should ship out to me today. I was told that I will have them by Friday. Once I receive them I will start getting them shipped to you guys. This price is still good for now so if anyone still wants one just let me know.


Shoe

Shoe,

nice job
this is an amazing amount of work
thanks for doing all of this for the community

I cant wait for this thing

Can hardly wait... Hope is shows up faster than my invisible evilwerks shirt.

I took a chance and ordered before I got your check, had you covered. Luckily when I got home from work the dough was in the box. Soon as I get these in I plan to have them all sent out same or next day.

According to the tracking number I should have the cameras Thursday. I will do my best to getthem out Friday or Saturday at the latest.


Shoe

Well, I will have the cameras tomorrow so I will start working on getting them out as soon as I get off work tomorrow.


Shoe

I woulda liked to have gotten in on round 1 so as to have one for MUSR, but oh well!

Well, why didn't you? I will make a call tomorrow and see if I can get ya one if you still want in. I should place another order before the ramble hopefully. Have a couple othe folks wanting them. I just needed to get first order in because I have people wanting to race with them this weekend.

I'm ready to race this weekend and upload video C&C Saturday!!

Oh, it was cash flow that held me back. I meant to point that out. We've been spending too much money lately.

I have the cameras in my posession now and am working on labels to make sure I have everyone's shipping info. I will let you know if I don't have it. Also there is still one out there that owes me $20.96. It would be nice to have that too.



Shoe

Okay, I know those of you who spent your hard earned money on these GoPro cameras probably really don't care but.... I should be dropping all of these at the post office tomorrow before noon. I will provide you all with tracking numbers so you can anxiously await the arrival of your new toy.




Shoe

Thanks for all your hard work on this. These cameras should be a blast! Wonder if we should start a gopro video thread to post up our adventures?

Got worried last night, had 2 addresses I couldn't find and yours was one of them. I found it though, just have one I need now.

thanks for doing this

Okay, all cameras were dropped off at the post office 3 hours ago. Most of you received a tracking number in your email from paypal. Those of you who sent checks and such, I willsend you your tracking number this evening. Enjoy the camera when it arrives and let's see lots of video!!!


Shoe

Not to worry, that price is still good for now so I will order more as soon as I have at least 5 ordered. Got a message from a fellow maybe wanting 2 so you might need one to go with your new teener!

Got mine yesterday morning charged it and stuck it on the company car for some tests. it was 107deg yesterday so I left the 914 in the garage but it looks great.

teener footage soon!!! Thanks Shoe!!!!

Got a box of happy from the post office today... and some dirty laundry. What SD card are the rest of you guys getting?

That laundry was clean thank you very much! I sent the dirty jock strap to Clay.

I bought a 16 gig card. They say you can record 9 hours of video on a 32 gig card but battery is only good for 2 1/2 hours.

Is there anybody out there that has not received your GoPro yet? If not, please let me know. Also, I was told I can have this price for awhile longer so if your buddies want one or you want another one, just let me know. Everytime I get five ordered and paid for, I will place an order.



Shoe

Mine has not arrived yet...

(F'n wit ya... didn't order yet but, I may take 3. Hang tight)

Okay, I have been getting a lot of inquireies so I guess it is almost time for round 2. I will start taking orders anytime you decide ya want one now. Everytime I have 5 ordered and paid for I will place an order and get them in here. I plan to keep doing this as long as they keep giving me the price. Buy away if you want one!
