New VIRB mount for -8

I?ve been thinking about how to change the viewers perspective away from my wing/forward mount and assembled RAM tubing that extends from WD-808 to just below the top of the canopy?almost like you?re looking over my head. It?s a stable platform so I don?t have to use Lens Correction or Stabilization on the VIRB. I think it looks pretty cinematic, here are a couple of videos that provide context.

Here's the new primary mount (with one out on the wing too):

It seems to be working well as even iHeart Radio (who rode along with us (the Cincinnati Warbirds) on Labor Day) linked out to the video, which features; RV's, T-6's, A-1 Skyraiders, Navions, CJ's, Yak's, T-28's, and a C45 flying through downtown Cincinnati, etc.

Everything is shot with a VIRB :)
