Sorted with the mount now, ended up buying an extension like above and also bought a hero 10 black.
Next question regarding mounts…
I want to mount my iPhone so I can not record lap times.
Any recommendations on a mount / position for this in a 172?
I’m camping over as you have probably noticed.
You’ll enjoy CSF mate, I’ve not been myself for a few years due to work and I’ve missed it - more excited this year aswell because it’s at Anglesey.
I’ve not driven it before so hopefully I can get dialled in pretty quickly.
YouTube vids I’ve been...
Ahh I’m passed caring about camping now.
I’ve gone OTT with the air bed and mattress topper so comfort should not be an issue.
I just hope @Jekyll isnt anywhere nearby with his ASBO snoring.
I must have read it wrong then.
I wasn’t going to camp purely because it killed me last track day sleeping in a tent however wanted to enjoy the banter on the evening. I just assumed the site would be locked up from previous.
Had I known you didn’t have to camp over to still be part of the...
You can leave site after the track day or whatever’s on has ended on the Friday and come back in again?
I know when it used to be at B***** you were locked in for the night
What’s the options for food on the Friday night?
Presuming once your on site, your in for the night so debating bringing the gas hob but not going to if not necessary.
So I have the mounts I need and a new GoPro.
Going slightly off thread topic but what programs do you use following recording your day?
I’m thinking of getting Harry’s lap timer GP so I can overlay the track layout and speeds etc but not overly sure how this is done.
From what I’ve seen, I...
Since my post above I’ve been and bought a hero 10 black.
The hero 7 white doesn’t allow any change of lens or white balance so I was fighting a losing battle.
Just charging the hero10 now and have had a look through how many settings there are.
Anybody using a hero10 black in car and has a...
New mount turned up and I’ve tried a few angles with it.
What do you reckon to this?
Quality is poor as it’s a screenshot off my phone from the GoPro Quik app.
Looking very dapper in your track day attire!
Shame to see it ended like that but I’m sure mark can get you back up and running.
Just out of interest, what mount are you using for the camera position?
I quite like that idea.
What I tend to do is open the boot and press record so I can see the screen and that it is recording before I’m strapped in. So setting a focal exposure spot may be possible.
I’ve had it a few times where I’ve been out, thinking it is recording to end up with just a photo at the end 🤦♂️
I’ll get some pics of where it’s mounted at the moment.
I have a hero 7 and it always looks really zoomed out and fish eyed.
Pic below of the view, as you can see it’s really high and the actually image itself is very high in contrast.
I can’t find a good angle for my GoPro on trackdays using the cage. Especially with the mount I have at the moment as it either sits to high or to low.
I remember seeing a while ago there was a mount that went between the two bucket seats and mounted through the harness holes in either seat...
