Windski: Yes, Stringy has been a great poster; especially as of the last few years...but you are relatively new on this forum. Some other excellent classic posters are: TravisBrickleRex PDXMonkeyBoy And of course the Dangler. J.P.

Stabilized video: https://vimeo.com/119802117 More on the topic at: http://www.kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2387916 I visited the OTO facebook page and it appears to be a product with a 3D printed gimbal mount for Gopro with electronics to keep the frame level with the horizon. Its a 1 axis stabilization as far as I can tell. the actual shape and size is a mystery till they roll out the product but based on the test video it seems to work well. It still seems to be in the testing and pre-production stage. You can briefly see it hanging on the kite lines in this video at 0:15 https://vimeo.com/116999248 http://get-level.com/ _________________ John UPWIND LAUNCH OF A SPORT stringy Since 23 Jun 2006 1726 Posts vancouver XTreme Poster Tue Jun 02, 15 4:29 pm     J.P. wrote: Jim, have you had any thoughts on adding a gimbal your awesome Contour/GoPro line mounts? sounds like someone already has that type of mount dialed. you should totally get one and make some video with that oto mount. _________________ www.jimstringfellow.com J.P.
