I'm about to bite the bullet and order one. After watching Bruno's vids it's pretty clear they work rather well.

I have a 4 GoPros of differing vintage (3 and 4 black and Session and 8) and two Garmins (VIRB Elite and 360). Most of them shut down in the South Florida direct sun if left running - both the Garmin and the GoPro. I do not use the highest shutter speed or resolution and they still shut down. BUT I will say the GoPro 8 (bought one in October) touch-screen interface is easy to use, has great video quality and the stabilization is amazing. I actually don't use it in the glider but it is a great action camera as long as you don't leave it running non-stop. It is a good deal on a superbly engineered piece of gear at $299.
