Just a short clip of joining up on my Dad's Kitfox Series 5 yesterday while trying out a new Drift POV camera.

PittsBird,
Thanks for the vid. Love the formation flying. Your camera has a nice lens that doesn't fish eye. The sound is good too. How did you tie it to your intercom? Also, does the camera have a remote control?

Thanks SkySteve. The Drift has an external mic plug in (gotta buy sep adapter), while the other common cams didn't at the price point it fits in. I just picked up the other cable hardware at Radio Shack to plug in to my intercom (1/4" Y-adapter, extension cord, and 1/4 to 3.5mm step down). The camera does come with a remote control that I wear on my wrist like a watch.

It's a Drift Stealth which comes with various mounts...I had it affixed to my right earpiece on the headset.

Hey Bruce- How do you know I wasn't doing the landing, haha....(oh yeah, he's in the video). Yeah, he does a good job. I actually met you years ago in Oshkosh when yours was still under construction. When you going to fly it to OH?
