    JP's S6 and Will's Audi 80 gopro footage

    A friend loaned me a gopro HD so I could see what it would be like to use before purchase. Going to have to experiment with wind noise when mounted to the outside of a car but real happy with the actual shots it takes.

      Mounted it with the motorsport suction cup. was a bit unnerving at first but so long the car panel is very clean we can proudly say it holds upto a high enough speed not to worry about it. Been looking online at sound solutions and people are making little aerofoils that cup around it to reduce wind noise seams to work quite well. So looks like a week of experimentation ahead :-)

              Have you tried it? If so what sort of speeds is it good for?

                    Just seen some videos and it helps alot, the wind noise is still there but not as much as it is without it, check this video out.

                      I have this camera aswell and the problem is not the wind its the wind rumbling that occure when running in high speeds...

                      I´m going to order this myself seems to be the cheapest way without modding the camera house.

                      There is a video of a corvette using it aswell, and he drives over 150km/h and it sounds pretty good i think...

                        very low speeds here, so this video is useless.

                          BS again in this video, because the camera is turned the wrong way around.

                          the only option is to make an external mic for the gopro hd, or buy a gopro hd 2.
