I use a Sony camera, which links to my I-phone, but for some reason it will not link while the engine is running.

Just mount a nexus7 with the gopro app on the front inst board, problem will be where to mount the camera pointing at your rear inst board? On your chest?

This includes rounding the edges of the gussets which will come into contact with fabric (I hope). Last sanding was made with 360 grade. Photo attached.

You could mount it on your shoulder harness straps just like a police body armor video camera. I would also think you could mount it on the seatback over your shoulder and use different wedges to cushion it and so that it gets the picture you want. Do you actually need to go pro apps? or is it that much better than other apps for free? We actually have 3 or 4 year old android phones that were have been replaced as they are obsolete. One has a cracked screen and it costs more to fix than the phone is worth. We loaded them with free kids apps and let our preschoolers play with them.

The aileron horn is per plans - except that mine are made of 20ga (.037") stainless steel. The elevator horn is slightly modified in that I didn't bend the mounting flanges per the plans. I have incorporated a separate channel that will be welded to the horn (not yet welded in photo). I found that the plans version would result in a gap between the tabs that is thicker than the wood that it attaches to, and also that those mounting flanges are quite narrow. As you can see, the aileron horn weighs 181grams (6.4 oz), and the elevator horn weighs 143 grams (5.0 oz). Bill C.
