Do multiple GoPros jinx a solo flight??

[LDJones]

I didn't find this posted here before...supposedly a first solo, three GoPros recording the event. Thankfully, he appears to be okay.

Cameras kill.

I think this is the third thread on this video that I know of on PoA. but yeah, this is extreme for a solo flight. for me it took longer to hit the 'play' button on this video than it takes me to set up my one camera.

First solo, worry about flyIng the plane and put the camera aside. The memory you have will last a lifetime.

It's porportional... the chance of something going wrong goes up with the addition of each camera. Add a person video'ing from the ground and you are most certainly doomed.

Honestly I barely remember mine.

Why the hell would you want to record any activity you do short of your uncle's sister in laws nieces preschool graduation just because you were paid to film it since the lawn mowing gig didn't work out?

I video most of my flights, often with multiple cameras. I enjoy watching the videos, and I often will learn or see things I missed during the flight. However, they are really for my own personal entertainment more than anything else, and I have not felt a need to post them on line. Not really sure what is so interesting about a 182 flying in Florida.

However, though I am not going to post evidence of any stupid pilot tricks I may have the misfortune of doing in the future(and so far as best as I know I have not come close to doing one), I am not going to ask others to have the same restraint. :wink2:

"Is the plane airworthy?" "yep, all the camaras are working".

Me neither, 3 uneventful take offs and landings.

Evidence abounds that many other places aren't interesting either. But that won't slow up the internet posts. Delete key is your friend.
