I flew this yesterday and found that while I was so close to the ground, my camera did not show the sky and I spent all the time trying to peer up at the top of the screen. I tossed that one away, and made a new holder for my camera so that I could get a bit more sky in the screen. I am happy with this one.

Great video. I found myself leaning over in my chair on some of those turns!
I don't know if I'd trust my old Rotax 377 enough to follow that route or not. My fun factor goes way down when I don't have a safe landing spot in gliding range. At 60 mph, I'm guessing you may have had just enough inertia to pop up out of the canyon and land on the rim if things got quiet all of a sudden.
How do you mount your camera to avoid vibration? Whenever I've mounted mine to the airframe, the video comes out like looking through Jell-O.

Wow, great low level Larry. I just love it. Some might consider it dangerous but what the heck. You gotta have some fun now and then at my age. It’s where good preflights and maintenance payoff. Thanks for the ride along!George H.

Martin,
I use a Virb elite ( out of production now.) with the cradle mount and I use the pitot tube I think from Aircraft Spruce. It is just a flat piece of alum bent to give the right angle to the camera. I added a bit of shock rubber to keep it from flexing. Mounted on the nose cone is the only place on my plane that will give me a reasonable vibration free spot to put it. I personally prefer to get the full view in front of me, and if I want selfies I use the wing secure point to give a different view.

Hi Larry,
I’m glad the weather improved and you’re in the air again. I really missed getting these videos. You do such a great job making & sharing them. Well done! 👍
Thanks,

Larry...
It's one thing to get the aviation fix from your great videos.. but I've also been introduced to a musician which I didn't know before. I may have to pipe that stuff into the work shop as inspiration!
Thank you for BOTH!!
Jerry
