Jar, is that a GoPro cam? If so, how did you mount it?

I did all the normal things to the nosewheel to fix the issue. Adding balance
weights even affected the speed range of the shimmy which seemed to confirm
it was a nosewheel issue.

range, so i can either accelerate or brake quickly thru the speed range to minimize
the discomfort.

The call came in late Thursday ' there was a cancellation, so would we be
able/interested in coming off the alternates list and joining "Be a Pilot
Day" at the National Air & Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Center? You bet!
The only trick was to get from Boston to Dulles by 0830 Saturday morning, b
ut with an RV-10 and a helpful tailwind ' no problem! Builders Steve Ste
lla and Aycan "John" Gencoglu and his daughter joined up for a beautiful we
ather day down to DC.
The only downside was the 50 minutes of taxiing and waiting to depart, but
that goes with the territory.
It's a fun event they have there at NASM. If you're interested for a futur
e year, they start accepting aircraft applications around Feb 1 each year.

Yes, a gopro. I basically did what Kevin did in his photo without the washer. I
used one of the standard plastic mounts. I left the adhesive foam pad with the
plastic cover still on it - don't want to use the adhesive but the foam pad
provides nice cushioning and paint protection (or in my case scuff protection).
I drilled a pilot hole in the center, which is right on that raised center rail.
Then i just used a countersink until a #8 CS screw was flush for the camera
mount to easily slide thru.
I have mounted it using a longer #8 access cover screw so far. I guess i could
do an above the wing mount with a fuel tank screw too. However, a wingtip vantage
point would be interesting too, but those are all #6 screws out on the wing
tip.

Yeah, I did that with my Pietenpol a couple of years ago. I'm probably the
only pilot in history to request and get permission to back taxi on runway
19 at IAD (the tower was happy to have me back taxi 200 feet rather than
wait for me to taxi a mile to the next turnoff). Lot's of fun!
