Re: Costa Rica tortuguero national park.

So cool...

I love your videos. Such a different world compared to our terrain up here. We also don't have roads or very many good emergency landing options. But we do have some...I can never find anyplace I'd want to put down in and emergency in your videos. Wonderful country though.

Do you shock mount the camera. Views are very stable without the jello ripple on a rolling shutter. Got a photo of how you mount it?

Flying is dangerous. If you think otherwise, you are new at this sport. Mind the gravity not the gap.

Re: Costa Rica tortuguero national park.

I made an inspection cover, no shocks, I just screwed the base of the camera (didnt trusted the glue).
Will take pictures.

Also the MT prop has reduced the vibration of the plane quite a lot.

As far as emergency landing places there are very few, you see the brown water below?
lots of crocs there, so thats not an option either.
Only advantage I have over a regular Cessna 182 is that mine stalls at 38kts or so, instead of 50kts.(Sportsman STOL and VGs)
