OMG, that was totally cool!:cool: Unusual place to mount a gopro, but it worked awesome. Nothing better than a pelican neck for a stabilizer.:thumbup:

Very cool. The camera doesn't look like a normal GoPro to me. Looks like they shaved a lot of weight from it..

Shaved GoPro Weight? you kidding me?

with a 6+ foot wing span, that bird can lift several pounds of water and large fish into it's mouth any time for dinner............while in mid flight.

I was more about the appearance (shape) of the camera that the actual "weight"
