Nice video. I love the offset mounted chase camera. It give a great view of more of the pilot so you can see their inputs, etc and I like that it is theoretically further away from the prop when landing. Do you you have a video reference for how you made it?
I found that although I use the GoPro footage, I look around SO much in the air that if you try to watch the GoPro footage alone, that you'll get seasick. If I had only enough money to buy one camera, I probably would just stick with my swing-arm mounted Insta360 x3.
I know what you mean. When I see something of interest I usually try to hold my head steady, however more times than not I'm moving around looking at the general landscape and trying to avoid obstacles.
Great video, as a kid, I used to mow the runway when it was grass. How did you get stared with paramotoring? I’m looking to start, but not sure how to make it happen.
Thanks, you actually just gave me a good idea for a new video. I always wanted to go through training for flying fixed wing. I got started like many, watching someone flying in a TH-cam video. You do not need a license or training to fly. I did not have the time off work to travel out of town to get training, so I self-trained. I bought a glider and practiced for 2 months by myself. Then I bought a motor and flew. It was definitely scary waiting for first takeoff (I am also afraid of heights), however when I was in the air, for the most part, I had no fear. As far as getting started, it depends how serious you are. There are places, that for a fee will tow you into the air then release the rope and you can float down. Also, places that you can take a tandem flight or flight in a trike. This may be a good start. Cheers
20 years ago I started working on my fix wing. I had a 4 year old at the time and ran out of time and money. Now I just want to fly out of my back yard and fly around forest lake. Can’t wait for the next video.
@@paulp6106 I didn't know you were local. I plan to fly at Forest Lake airport tomorrow. It will be the first day in about 2 weeks where it hasn't been windy. I plan to be there at 6:00pm
@@paulp6106 Hey Paul, Do you happen to still have the video you took of me when I had my accident? I'm trying to figure out how/when my riser came loose. The video from the other guy was from the back and was hard to tell.

I like the 'Chrisonthelake' chase cam. I made one several years ago from his video.
Another great video buddy!
Thanks
It would be nice if we could get out flying, it 's been windy forever

Thanks, go to my channel, I have a separate video on how I made it.
Cheers
