Love it - this made me laugh and although I obviously don’t need to win one because I have already got one ( so I can copy you) I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed seeing the Heart mixing desk and Genesis playout software. Almost as bangin’ as the headcam view. 👌👍

Haha! I'm very much looking forward to seeing the head cam work wonders for you on your channel. In fact the headcam / Gabri G2 sitch got a mention the other night I noticed. ... awesome! haha...you know it, it's a kind of cockpit in there, too!

Ben Atkinson it certainly did! I wondered if you had clocked that. I think it’s buttons, switches and flashing lights we like so much. And hitting the vocal, obviously. 👌

Rory On Air oh I wouldn’t miss a detail like that! I even noticed a serious jockin’ reference. Haha - that’s it, makes ANY job cooler....in my opinion.

Well done Ben and well deserved for the 1k. I tried the head cam in the PA28 but the headroom doesn't allow for such scenic shots you get in the Eurostar etc. The viz in the Eurostar is really nice. I've tried a shoulder cam and that gave a really nice view of the instruments.

Hey cheers Chris - Ahh yeh - I guess thats not that dissimilar. PA28 slightly more restrictive with views I guess! Thanks for watching mate

You are looking so chilled out and confident Ben! That is great to see. I always feel if I am relaxed that I have spare capacity to think ahead and really enjoy flying.

Ah it's just something that takes time isn't it! Could agree more though!

Look at those subscribers go, well done. Have never really thought about the head mount angle in this way so thanks for this. Will have to give it a go once we are able to fly again - whenever that may be. Keep well and stay safe.

We will fly again soon! We are in this together! You are right! We might even fly together one day! Came here from Mentour’s channel... subscribed and looking forward to seeing your videos.

Nice video Ben, gotta love the Eurostar. Flown on one once, a very nimble little aircraft with surprising performance. Cheers!

Dutch Aviation Blog yeh it’s a fantastically agile aircraft and fast too...!

I have a head cam but being 6ft5" tall it gets a great view of my wing root, I used it at the start of the Kub flights but have stopped as it hits the frame inside my micro microlight, which is a distraction. That said it did pick up view the other cameras don't, I am thinking chest cam for my the dials and lift my cockpit camera for better pilot view and play with different angles for the strut cam. Looking forward to flying!!!!

Hi Ben, Cracking fun idea - the prize draw. Also, although having a camera strapped to your head ain't glamorous, it's added greatly to the viewing angles/pleasure no end. Our local DJ too - cool! Looking forward to your solo flight in the EV97. Stay safe and well too matey. My KFC buddy sends his regards too.

I got the idea to use one off you and I absolutely agree - it is the best view. You only really need another camera to switch to when you move your head around too much, too quickly and put whoever is viewing in danger of motion sickness 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice 1000 sub give away, as Head cams are essential for a good vlog. I suppose I'm lucky I have a helmet to mount mine to. Unfortunately, I don't use Instagram but I hope someone can use the prize. Keep the content coming.
