I’ve added a few things to my trike. First, I wasn’t really happy with just clipping my radio on to a strap with just the belt clip on the radio. It wasn’t that secure. So I ordered a radio case from 5.11 Tactical. I have to pull the radio out to change frequencies but I don’t anticipate having to do this very often. In fact, I usually use the frequency lock function of my Icom radio to make sure I don’t inadvertently change the frequency. I mounted the case on the left side of the harness.
I also ordered a GoPro Hero4 Silver and a handlebar / tube mount. I also put a mount on top of my helmet. I tried mounting the tube mount in various locations but none seemed to work out that well. The engine would vibrate the heck out of the camera affecting video quality. I finally settled for mounting on the foot peg of the nose wheel. We’ll see how this works out.
I can either point the camera forward for flying video or point it upwards for shots of myself and the wing. Next time out I’ll take a couple of flights with the GoPro facing forward, upward, and mounted to my helmet. Just to see how the three points of view compare.
