Subject: | A List Contribution - It's Your Personal Squelch Button... |
There is an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages.
Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through
the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, their email address is automatically added
to this year's Contributor List and they instantly cease to receive further Fund
Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple! :-)
I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support
the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware
and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes
to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric
bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered
on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which
allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in
reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined
with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site
up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics
Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are
so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have
it on my Email List sites.
If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email
Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!!

Kolbers
Can someone tell me what brand of noise-cancelling headset works well in a Kolb?
And hopefully doesn't break the bank either!
Thanx

Subject: | Video Montage of Different Camera Mounts |
I think I have finally found the camera mount that I like best for my Drift
170 video camera.
The first clip uses a mount I made that plugged into the Kolb wing fold
fitting. It was fairly stable but too close to the wing. I couldn't figure
a way to extend the mount away from the wing enough to get the wing out of
the camera lense and keep it stable.
In the second and third clips I used the wing fold fitting but the mount
was bent down 45 degrees and the wing is STILL in the camera lense. This
mount does a great job of photographing things straight down. I'm going to
use this mount to video a shipwreck of the Novadock that is just below the
surface off Silver Lake State Park in Lake Michigan. The problem with this
mount is it is very sensitive to bumpy air and it bends the horizon and
other things not directly in line with the front of the lense.
The fourth clip uses the Drift strap mount attached to the bottom of the
lift strut near the midpoint of the strut right outboard of the jury strut.
The Drift strap mount uses a quick mount system that introduced a bit of
slop in the mount. You have to look close in the video to see it but on the
ground, in bumpy air and some RPMs, shake the camera enough to make it very
blurry.
The fifth clip uses the strap mount rapped around web material in the same
lift strut location as clip four. I also put some duck tape on the male
side of the drift quick mount to take up slack that causes slight camera
oscillations.
The sixth clip is the landing from the fifth clip. It was getting dark so I
increased the brightness on play back. The brightness increase or low light
caused the video to look grainy, the brightness increase also wiped out a
nice sun set. This is the stabilized strap mount. I couldn't resist showing
this clip because it was one of my best landings and it was on video.
The video is on Vimio again at:

yes all lower case sorry

I liked the landing too.
Seems the older I get the worse my landings become.
I do well on grass, but my landings on pavement usually suck.

The Sigtronics S-AR works good for me. It's the only one I've used so others may
be better?

A picture of the mounts might not be all that bad for those of us who are
very visual.
I kept checking my Drift to see why you were getting all that curve in the
videos. I don't remember mine being that way. Mine is set for 1080, but
there is some adjustment to the magnification of the lens at 720. That
might account for it, or I am never high enough to see the horizon?
Glad to see that you found a sweet spot, its not all that easy on a plane
that vibrates as much as they do.
