Where to mount GoPro in cabin of Archer II?

[stevenhmiller]

I want to mount my GoPro inside my Archer II, but can't seem to find a place that will work, other than the side window. Ideally, I'd love to be able to mount it so it is able to capture out the front with the pilot and copilot in view. The problem is, there is no surface that I can mount the suction cup attachment to on the ceiling.

Anyone have any ideas, or have achieved this in an Archer?

I used one of the more permanent sticky mounts right where the overhead cabin light is located. That gave me the best view of the instruments/outside that I have captured.

The suction cup stinks. I can't find anywhere to mount it in the Arrow.

I use the suction cup when mounting the camera on the wing, or elsewhere outside. There's no place to mount it inside, other than one of the windows. I prefer not to do anything permanent.

Do the suction cups really hold onto the wing reliably? Every suction cup mount I've used on glass inside eventually falls off.

You need to use the GoPro brand suction cup. Make sure to thoroughly clean the area you want to put the cup.

Here's the video I took when we took a flight to get ice cream at Dairy Queen in Crystal River, FL.

I have used a small tri pod and used the rear seat belts to cinch it down tight in the back seat... Camera was positioned between the pilot /co pilot and looked over their shoulders and aimed out the windscreen .. Worked ALOT better then I imagined... Cheap too...

That's a thought. I have a tripod somewhere. I'll see if I can make that work. Thanks for the post!
