New GoPro

[outnumbered]

My wife bought me the new GoPro for Christmas. I have ridden around with it once mounted to the rear glass; albeit reluctantly, as I didn't want a $400 camera flying off. Can anyone give me some pointers (do's and don'ts) so I get the best video's, but more importantly don't lose it.

I'm no pro but I have used mine alot. When I place it at the top of my back window "Outside the car" I will run some heavy fishing line into the rear hatch hinge so if it does come loose it wont go bye bye. Its very rare that they come loose if the suction cup is placed properly on a clean area of your ride. Also for a better sound quality you will need a mic. Not so much inside but outside helps alot.

I also got the Hero 4 for Christmas and I have used the Suction cups and had no issues not one... You can down load the app on your phone and see live video so if for any reason it would come off you could stop right of way...

Love the fishing line tip. Thanks
