Ultralight flight video with wide lens GoPro 13
Long slow flight out to Gunn Point to test out my GoPro 13 with Max lens providing 177 degrees field of view – hence the video name.
The camera showing the scenery without me in it is the GoPro 13 and the camera on the wing is a GoPro 11 set to hyperview which is the widest setting with the standard lens.
Have added some detailed video chapter links below so if you are local to Darwin NT or just interested in our scenery this time of year in the Top End of Australia – you can jump to that location. Filmed in 4K so if you have the time, inclination and bandwidth you can sit back, put it on the big screen and join me on this slow (although it looks fast with the wide lens) journey around the outskirts of Darwin.
Also, I added in the gauges from the telemetry software I have. This takes the data from the GoPro and transforms it into the nice dials you see on the screen. I have just included two styles of map along with an overlay of the heading over the top of the ASI (Air Speed Indicator) 50 Knots is my cruise speed and I have the ability to adjust the gauges to reflect the speeds of my aircraft. 50 knots is about 100 kmh.
