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.

And if you crash, the SD card is the first thing the Authorities will look
for!
Remember, anything you say (or record) can and will be used against you!
