Ipod Nano with camer

[propwash]

Hello,
My wife got me the last generation nano for my b-day, before I even bought my Cub. Little did I realize how adequate this camera is for mounting on the fuse. I don't have any pics yet but will provide. I have tried two locations.
- Behind nosebowl: Great location, but makes for poor footage, as camera points straight down.
- Side of fuselage, slightly behind wing. Excellent spot, creates a true "passenger" experience.

On both locations I used packing tape. No damage to fuselage and no yucky residue on the nano.

The biggest downside to the nano is overexposure, anytime you're facing towards the sun everything goes dark, so you only get decent footage when viewing on the opposite side of the sun.


Here's my vid using the nano:

Here's the "setup". Sorry for the crude pic taken from my bb, but at least you can see how it lays nice and flat against the fuse. Two strips of packing tape is all it takes, and it stays nice and firm. Vibration only noticeable at full power but I usually lower power right after takeoff anyways.

this works great for me, too. I thought it was my idea! great minds think alike

Nice video! What about taping it on the bottom of the plane? You might not get the iris issues with the sun then.
