First flight with Contour GPS camera on a Parkzone Radian

Second time flying the Radian, first time with the Contour camera attached.
The camera affected the the plane's flight a little more than I expected - I wasn't able to get the plane trimmed during this flight. Much higher sink rate too.

The camera was attached to the plane using some zip-ties threaded though a modified Contour head-strap mount and wing.

good video, planning to buy camera for my paragliding.

@spiridulla Thanks! I've got several more posted with the same setup, but better visuals and more altitude.

I've seen quite a few paragliding videos shot with the Contour and GoPro cameras. Sure looks like fun.

Great flying! What model plane?

[AnotherAlienVisitor]

@Aweber87 Parkzone Radian. Ready-to-Fly with Spektrum 2.4Ghz radio setup. Easy. Fun. Carries the camera with out difficulty.
