 Bouncing around what to do about monitoring my single rotor, on the ground
 and in
 flight, I looked at a zillion of possibilities. Non met my requirements of
 being
 simple and affordable and still doing the job. I even went so far as
 building a timer
 for my small camera taking a picture every few seconds. I never finished
 it.
 Now I discovered GoPro, and suddenly my problems were solved.
 The first picture is what the camera is taking, and the second is zoomed
 in to
 whatever I want to look at.
 The camera is clipped to my front harness taking pictures at the rate I
 set it to.
 I think every first flight should have it so the pilot does not have to
 worry about
 not reading engine data, and can safely fly the airplane.

 Go to GoPro.com for spec.

Great idea!

That's a cool panel...  Kind of retro, but kinda modern at the same time.
