Piper Cub J3 Flight

Morning test flight and out looking for Big Horn Sheep in 1946 J3 Piper Cub. C-85 engine.
GoPro Hero2 camera. (Sorry about the iPad in the way).
The iPad is mounted with a "RAM" Mount which has a combination lock. iPad is used for navigation by using current VFR charts on "ForeFlight" app., which has all airport diagrams, notams, weather, charts, frequencies, GPS, taxi charts and IFR apprroach charts (not used in Cub). Also there is a "SPOT" GPS - mounted with a RAM mount for tracking me and emergency location in addition to a standard ELT. On top of the dash is a "P-CAS" Zion traffic Passive type TCAS to detect aircraft traffic with distance/altitude from me.

Sweet once again! What all do you do with the iPad in the Cub? We use them now in our cockpits with Jeppview, etc. Also saw some kind of gizmo with 4 digits above the iPad, and a TCAS looking gizmo on the glare shield. Nice iPhone too. The quality on that Gopro is just amazing! Please don't forget your Gopro on every flight. :-)
