I gotta buy a gopro today and cant decide on what one to go with. Its either I get the hero2 sports edition or the hero3 white. I will be using it for drifting, motocross, surfing, snowboarding, speed flying (a mini paraglider).
If you plan to use it in water, that alone is reason to get the 3. The housing on the 2 is round which adds a vignette effect under water. The 3 is flat.
Good choice. What size wing do you fly? I have always wanted to speedfly, I didn’t really think about doing it anywhere locally. What’s the elevation drop there?
I have heard that the silver and white are just re-bodied hero 2’s but with wifi built in. Best buy and future shop had the hero2 motorsports edition with the wifi remote and wifi back pac. smoking deal considering just the hero 2 is well over 200. Can’t wait to get rippin with this combined with my Contour HD.
I fly a JN HellRacer 12.8. Its kinda fast for this area but it just ads to the fun lol. I would say the elevation drop is around 200-300ft. Here is a vid of me flying at centenial park (more fun when the winds are SE 40kmh) and a bit of the escarpment.
