Default New video from my truck

i just invested in a car mount (gps mount) for my Android X phone. Although not necessary it lets me easily use it as a GPS (i use to keep it on my cupholders). It ALSO lets me use the camera and camcorder feature while im driving. I am going to change the mounting angle so that i can shoot forward without it being blocked by the suction cup but this was my first test vid. I think this will work well to capture some video when im out on the trails! what do you guys think?

That seemed to work out pretty good. Im curious how itll do on the trails if it will be shakey or not? But looked sturdy in the vid. Plus I think that was me in the first truck heading the other direction LOL

I tested out a few unique camera angles a year or so ago, I really like the different views.
Your camera seems pretty steady on road, can't wait to see you get some shots off road.

i can mount it to the dash which i will do to keep the suction cup out of the shots and keep it from now falling down when off road. my phone shoots HD video and can isntantly upload to youtube. YAY technology.
