VIRB for Aviation Takes Flying to a New Altitude

0 comments

Perhaps you one of the many pilots out there who received a Garmin VIRB this holiday season and you’re looking to capture some exciting video? Sure, it might be a bit chilly this time of year and doing a preflight in 15 degree weather sounds less than ideal, but I’ll give you some excellent reasons to get out there and starting recording your flying right away – regardless of the temperature!

VIRB Elite takes flying to a whole new “altitude” especially when paired with accessories such as our headset cable and propeller filter. While capturing video in-flight, pilot-to-pilot and ATC transmissions are easily embedded within the video while using the stereo headset cable. The prop filter reduces propeller distortion, so video is not distorted while filming through a moving aircraft propeller.

Speaking of accessories, the Aviator Action Pack and VIRB Elite Aviation Bundle conveniently packages VIRB Elite and all of the accessories pilots need to takeoff and capture in-flight video with ease. If you didn’t receive a VIRB this holiday, check out these bundles tailored specifically to pilots:

Aviator Action Pack

  •  VIRB Elite HD action camera
  •  D2 Pilot Watch
  •  Headset cable
  •  Propeller filter
  •  16 GB, Class 10 microSD card
  •  Suction cup mount
  •  Six-month trial of Garmin Pilot

VIRB Elite contains a high-sensitivity GPS accelerometer and altimeter, so pilots can overlay GPS position information, airspeed, altitude, G-loading, heading and more, all within the video. VIRB Edit conveniently compiles video and GPS data so it’s easy to manage, organize and share video with our free desktop app.

Once your VIRB video has been edited, don’t just share it with your friends and family – share it with the world! Submit your video to the “Flying is…” Garmin VIRB Video Contest and show everyone what flying means to you. As a rule of thumb, videos must be between 30 seconds and three minutes long and if they’re really cool, they just might be featured on flyingmag.com and FLYING’s editorial eNewsletter.

Don’t wait until spring to start capturing thrilling in-flight video. Not sure where to start? Check out some back country flying captured by the first winner of the “Flying is…” contest, Darrin Scheer!
