• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Nice clear picture there, but what highway is that!!!! It has to be the quietest highway on the planet.

Naismith....

The highway is 421 southeast of Greensboro, NC at noon on Monday. There are LOTS of nice riding roads here in NC ( stay away from the interstates ) !!

The camera is a GoPro ( GoPro.com ) set at 1280x960 resolution. Resolution ranges from 848x480 all the way up to 1920x1080 (HD). Mounting units are available for anything you can think of........I've got the helmet and handlebar mounts and can switch back and forth in seconds.

I was surprised that it took me almost an hour to upload a 2 minute video to Youtube!
I'm thinkin' resolution had something to do with that...........:isadizzy:

The GoPro are very popular among pilots too...I was talking to a guy recently who has 3 mounted on his aircraft.

I've a 30 minute HD clip from a recent Irish FlyIn that I was gonna put up on youtube. I gave up due to the abysmal upload speeds (and the fact that I'd have to split the video too).

Kilo delta,

Youtube needs to get it's act together with the HD stuff........that's pretty much standard these days. In the meantime, I'm gonna dial it down to the 848x480 resolution and see what that looks like ( and upload time ).
I've got some powered-parachute flight training coming up soon and I want more than
2 to 3 minute videos........
