cscotthendry Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 G'Day. While doing the annual service on my Nynja, I came up with a new use for my GoPro. I attached it to a monopod and shoved it into the inaccesible areas of my wings and the tail. I got some great pics of the frame, fasteners and bracing cables. The GoPro has a wide angle lens so pointing the camera is not particularly critical. Also since version 3 of the GoPros, they have wifi and can be controlled remotely with an iPad or iPhone. You can also get a preview which helps positioning the camera for the best shot. I'm sure that other sports cameras would be equally useful in this regard. Finally, the pics will be a good comparative reference for the next service. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
