Video cam in kite bridles?
Hi all,
I have been playing with placing an atc2k bullet type video cam in the kite bridles (duct tape). I have not had very much success it is very very
shaky and it keeps flipping over and over all in all it really make me feel sick looking at it. Any advice?

I haven't had the chance to try mine in the kite yet. Popeye the welder has some very nice video from the kite. Check him out on youtube. I believe he
mounts his out near one wing tip ? :puzzled: Must be on a larger kite ? I would have mounted it near the center but expected dizzy shots like you
discribe.

I looked at his vids, I mounted it just above the speed system pulley on my access 10. It was a lighter wind day so maybe it needs more power than I
had... :puzzled:

I wonder if, with a bit of experimentation, you could have the camera free dropped just below the kite on a line. The line connects to the camera and
a "wind vane" sorta weighted thing. maybe this would keep the camera somewhat pointed into the wind and slower moving??
