- How do I get good audio mid-flight? How do you stick a gopro on the wing? What cameras are you using? What is the meaning of life? How do you pull off your rugged handsomeness? These are all questions I receive often, and hope to answer most of them here. These are the 4 camera angles I use for my youtube videos, and all of the parts I have to get those angles. Hopefully this helps others trying to capture their adventures. Followed by @flyinbryanfpv for an exclusive rare 5th camera angle: The freestyle stunt drone!

I like your style of honest presentation in all of your videos! You definitely stand out! Is video/audio recorded separately on each camera on individual memory cards? How do you sync everything? Is each camera perhaps referenced to GPS time? Or does each accessory camera stream to a master recorder in your helmet camera? If you temporarily turn off an accessory camera and then turn it back on, will it automatically come back in sync with your recording timeline? I hope that I'm making sense with all of this confusing gibberish. Thank you ...I appreciate the effort and work that you put into your videos!
Way simpler than that! Audio and video are recorded on each gopro in their own sd card like normal, but I discard all audio except my hemlet cam with the superior microphone. Sync is done by simply aligning start times with that remote. In previous videos, you've seen me go "one potato two potato *clap*" to sync the videos by their audio. But now that I have that little remote, I just import video clips from each camera chronologically and they are all the same length, starting at the same instant. If you have more than 2 cameras the remote is a godsend! Once I'm off the ground, all cameras start, stop, power on and power off at the same time.
@@AveryFlies Avery, thank you! I see now that the remote is key. Hopefully I will get to fly powered paragliders some day! Keep flying and I will continue watching and dreaming!
@@Terry-ib6uv the remote helps! Without it, I would start all the cameras within 15 seconds and sync the video with the audio. Then the cameras would just run the whole time until they die. The remote lets me sync easier and conserve battery.
Really like how you keep conversation real, and on content. Glad I found this video as I’m currently looking into cameras now. Can you tell me how the chase cam connects? Is it off the wing or? Thx for making this. Was really helpful.
It is connected to the D attachments on the bottom of the wing surface near the center. NOT the brakes!
I like the idea of a helmet cam, however I just don't trust sticky mounts (didn't have a choice with the bluetooth coms modual, but it still worries me). I was using a chest rig for the motorbike, haven't tried it (or any in flight camera) on the paramotor yet though. Wing mount is a great angle, just once again, don't think I'd be happy to trust it with a AU$600 camera. Chase cam is one thing I do eventually want, love the remote to sync up the recording! (bit hard to take a laptop up with me to solve that issue the way I did with target shooting vids).
I recommend 3M vhb tape (GoPro brand concave mounts come with it) and 3M adhesion promotor 94. You will break the mount before the tape lets go. I use it in my day job and trust a camera to it with no hesitation. I also used the same adhesion promoter to stick my strobe lights to my fuel tank, and they're still on there a year later. amzn.to/3P3MU5a
How is the selfie stick is attached to the SAFTY CABLE ANCHOR?
Cool video through!
The cable anchor has a nylon webbing loop on the end with a snap/clasp. I pass that through the wrist strap of the selfie stick, then use a zip tie to make sure the snap/clasp doesn't come undone.
@@AveryFlies Great, thanks!
Informative video! Question: what Fields of View, i.e., Wide Angle, etc., are you using for the separate camera positions, and maybe your exposure settings too. Keep up the great work!
I am very basic. I let the GoPro do color, iso, etc all automatically. All fields of view at max, aka "super view"
@AveryFlies I appreciate the speed at which you move. As soon as the wx flattens out, I'm going to perform some GoPro experiments. After hearing your audio, I'm definitely going to upgrade my setup. Thanks!
@@spottorf happy to help!
Like your style, very simple and realistic. Amazed how comfortable you are so quick you have adapted fairly quick I guess the ballooning played a part in that. Keep doing it how you do it, it is good content! Lol
Man, I sure like this content... I'm still debating on whether to sell one of these ultralights and try and get some training here in Oklahoma....bro , if you get a afro hair do. You could pass for Napoilin Dynamight,, lol just jiving you bud ,, keep them videos coming,, it is good content o. ...😃😃
I get called napoleon a LOT. It doesn't get that long, though, and I can't stand the heat in the summer, so it's getting cut here soon 😂 Glad you liked it!
hi as I am old school in order to learn I need the info. so with that excellent how you presented the video with all the devices. knowledge is never-ending . a welcome.so I will keep it short. thumbs up on your excellent wing the mojo. flysafe and keep well to all. the drone called the skydio 2 is another excellent item to have. I live in great Britain...so we need to wait.
I don't trust self flying drones around a piece of fabric that supports my life, but that's just me. My part time job at a hobby store means I see a lot of "collision avoidance didn't work, my drone hit a car/house/tree!" So it will be a long time before I try one out autonomously 😂
Great, now I'm gonna go even more broke! I just 3D printed a chase cam but the wingtip cam looks cool.
I considered printing, but if it isn't tpu I wouldn't expect a printed chase cam to last long. The price of the ppg smoke cam was hard to pass up, instead of 8 hours of printer time
Dude! Well done. I had to buy a GoPro extended battery to record my flights, very bulky and I have hours of wasted data on my SD card. Just bought the remote and subbed.
Thanks! I still might get an extended battery, depends on how much of my video is good content 🤣
I guess I am nobody. 😂🤣 Good show. I like the camera work.
Analytics are so crazy! I never realized basically three quarters of people stop watching after 5 minutes. I'm doing my best to make my videos shorter, but I appreciate people like you who take the time to watch the whole thing when it's taking me days to create. It means a lot to me!
I fly a powered parachute with Comtronics headsets for me and passengers. I normally mount GoPro on the frame. Wanting to record audio from my headset to the GoPro 7. Haven’t figured the necessary cables. Ideas? Thanks!!
You would need a GoPro 7 specific media mod, but the microphone that I listed in this description should work just fine for you!
@@AveryFlies
I really appreciate your response, thank you!
@@greggschachterleppc2769 Absolutely! I also have a newer video on the subject, but the microphone suggestion remains the same. th-cam.com/video/o8dOoV2MCmE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VgiLH_whVosIK3tz
Love your view of being honest on things that were not perfect
Really enjoyed your video, how do you sync the audio, is it done in editing or do all the GoPro"s link audio by Blue tooth?
Simpler than that. By using the remote, each GoPro starts and stops at the same time. I only use the audio from my helmet since it has the external mic. When I go to edit videos, I lay them out chronologically and the videos that are the same length go with each other. Because they start and stop at the same time, that syncs them. Maybe this will explain it better: th-cam.com/video/V-zE6CHoVNY/w-d-xo.html
ok, I need to get a snap-mount ASAP. that's just too cool
It really is a sweet angle. I'm surprised more people don't use it!
Avery could you list your vest and the selfi stick and the gopro on off remote plese
Listed in the description!
So close to 1000!
Isn't there a chance of that chase cam swinging into the prop on landing
Not while in flight, but on takeoff and landing yes. You have to keep the wing slower than you and outrun it to keep clear!
Nice.
What's your favorite angle? Leave a comment! Time stamps and links to the gear I use are in the description
EDIT: I have an updated version, now with a GoPro 260! See it here: th-cam.com/video/o8dOoV2MCmE/w-d-xo.html
I like your wingtip, and follow cam best. For myself, the helmet cam tends to turn with my head Since I keep my head on a swivel where I fly, it doesn't make much sense. I also personally use a clip on a chest strap. Nor such a fan of the results, but it is only for me anyway.
Hi man
Good video!
Can you tell me what helmet you have?
I want to by one and I see a lot of people with a helmet like yours on TH-cam but I can't find it for sail
They aren't sold, they're made. This is a Giro Quarter helmet with a Sena SMH-10 bluetooth headset and 3M Peltor ear muffs. I have a video comparing helmets, the description has a full list of parts and costs. th-cam.com/video/dl2QJsamn7Q/w-d-xo.html
@@AveryFlies i saw it thsnk you!
I want to buy a helmet
And one thing I don't understand is why not to buy a paramotor helmet from the start ?
What is better with the giro helmet?
I saw a lot off people with it and it looks good so I want to understand if there's a advantage in it?
Thanks a lot!
@@kaicrideextreme5315 they're cheaper to make, that's pretty much it.
@@AveryFlies thanks man!
Found your channel yesterday and it helped me a lot!
Happy to help!
Thank you for that! I was one of the many that asked and it was nice to see this video. I will try the wing tip…. I also will be trying a mount to my prop cage ( the hoop), basically over my right shoulder…. Fingers crossed! Thank you again!
Thanks for watching! I recommend you use a good mount on the hoop with some kind of safety strap, losing a GoPro to the propeller would stink!
