Can you remove an adhesive Gropro mount after using it or does it simply stay there for ever? I'd like to know because I have a gopro and I want to try to mount it on my 172 with an adhesive mount. Thanks!!!
@adlegris Of course you can but it's not easy. You need a hair dryer - Warm the attached mount up and slowly bend it away, don't hurry, let it take the time it takes, just remember to do it slowly. And I would not recommend you to re-use it even if it would be possible, buy a new one if you want to be sure.
I am impressed with the quality of this footage... On a side note, you kept your plane very well aligned with the center line during take-off, good job!
Hey mate, starting my PPL soon so going to get a GoProHD2 and I'm doing it in a SportsStar (Very much like a Diamond D40) how could I attach them to a Wing or something?
@HeathrowSpottingHD Use the mounts with the sticky side which comes with your Gopro and mount it on a good place, it doesn't matter where you attach it but remember you can't re-use a used mount if you remove it. If you like the angle you can just leave your mount attached onto your plane until next time you want to record.
@thenglennsaid I'm not the author of this video but I have a Gopro myself. The best way to mount it is to stick the Flat Adhesive mount on the plane's flat area instead of using the suction mount. It's much more secure than using the suction mount. When you're done you can just leave the mount sticked to the plane and use it for some other time, you can't re-use it anyway once you have removed it. And remember to clean the surface before attaching the mount.
how did you fix the camera on the horizontal stabilizer? sorry for my english, i'm from Austria! I have no idea how to fix the gopro on my Katana xtreme!
@marsia380 Gopro sell a "motorsports" pack that include a suction cup. I tested this suction cup on a cessna 410 so i'm sure you can put it on your katana! link of the video on a cessna 152, 172 and 410. /watch?v=9ZbuHug6yac

thats the coolest perspective i have seen so far. Shows the plane, the ground, and it doesn't obstruct anything infront of the plane so you can see ahead! good work. I would love to know what you used to mount the camera on the horizontal stab like this. I don't trust my suction cup on countour hdGPS to hold on to the outside of my cessna. Along with all the regulations that go along with doing that, it's not worth the risk. Let me know how you did it!!!
what did you use to mount it? I have a big suction cup meant for cars traveling up to 200 mph and want to put it on a small Cessna that only goes about 100.
I mounted one of these for my Convection Connection film. The FAA saw the film and came out to my hangar to inspect how the camera was mounted. This is considered a minor alteration to the aircraft and requires a mechanic sign off to be legal. Thought you guys would like to know. Especially those who have tail numbers in your video.
