Videos or blogging
« on: January 24, 2025, 02:54:13 PM »
 I've been watching Wheels through time videos and wondered if anyone has any experience with making video?  They are using an insta 360 X4 camera with an invisible selfie stick. I wondered how they make the videos that look like a drone is flying alongside the bike, it's that camera with the invisible stick mounted to the handlebars.
 Hackaweek is OK, but I'd love to see a real time Honda teardown and/or get an old turd running video.

Don check out 2Vintage channel on you tube...a new old turd almost every week.  He's a young kid and has the the fuel-spark-compression triangle wired up tight!  Just about all motovloggers use those Insta360 camera's now.  Most find them a much better experience than the undependable GoPro's.  The camera uses propietary software to digitally edit the selfie stick out of the picture along with lots of other special effects available.
If it works good, it looks good...

Itchy=Boots has me hooked. She uses some cool techniques too, all on her own.

 My daughter got me a go pro a couple years ago, it came with a turd battery, and it took me forever to realize that it didn't work because of the battery, not my stupidity and lack of tech savvy. I got a pair of new batteries but by then she re-possessed it.
 We got some good video at the drag strip but now NHRA says you can't aim it at your competition. Facing rearwards makes an awesome view when the starting line disappears. I want to watch the rear shocks and slicks when they expand at speed.
