HPI 4.6 Trophy Truggy w/GoPro POV Swivel Roof Mount

[wwit]

Hi all.

I shot another quickey GoPro video today using a homemade 'experiment' swivel roof mount from odds n' ends I had on hand. I destroyed it in @ 10 minutes but got @ 6 minutes of decent video from the unique perspective. and have better idea how to build a better more solid mount in the near future.

So just a fun little video. Does show the Badlands ripping up the grass pretty well in this one.

Enjoy.

looks like you need something a bit stronger and a counter balance. jetlag2222 has done this before and his worked and held up rather well.

 

good video and great shot, it would great if it was edited properly into a video with some jumps and other driving shots.

Hey thanks. Yeah I am 'editing challenged' at best. This vid was one of my first Ive ever done and still just barely scratching the editing skills as a sub novice grade at best. Ima noob. And the camera rig needs some work. Literally just thrown together from some stuff I had hanging around the house. Mostly just in the process of doing some camera rig R'n'R for short change. Main thing I found is that the bounce effect wasn't the light cpvc tubing I first suspected, but how the caster was only attached directly onto the body roof supported with a 2x3" piece of Kydex. The entire body was being shifted on the body posts as it flexed pretty badly. But I learned from it and will figure a better way.
