Description
SkyBean ChaseCam for GoPro Hero 3, 3+, 4, GoPro Hero 4/5 Session, GoPro Hero 5/6 Black or Gitup Git2 is a unique product that will allow you to capture an amazing video of your flight. Re-live your adventure from a perspective of an eagle following you throughout the entire flight. The ChaseCam allows you to share your flying experience with friends and loved ones.
Suitable for GoPro Hero 3, 3+, 4, GoPro Hero 4/5 Session, GoPro Hero 5/6 Black or Gitup Git2. For all other cameras we offer an universal ChaseCam here. | |
We created a simple, but sophisticated device, so everyone is able to launch smoothly and safely, with ChaseCam on board or from the ground. | |
Construction is made from lightweight and durable plastic. | |
We spent hundreds of hours in research and development using aerodynamic and wind tunnel simulations. ChaseCam is absolutely safe to use and does not affect the quality of flight. | |
Stable output from the ChaseCam is achieved by using an aerodynamically stable profile, which was developed during hours of simulations and with practical tests in a wind tunnel. | |
Camera case is made from tough material, which protects it during non ideal takeoffs and landings. PLEASE READ SECURITY RULES IN SPECIFICATION TAB CAREFULLY. |

Specifications
camera security
We upgraded the design for maximum security of your GoPro action camera. Fix the camera in the ChaseCam housing with the silicon band. Silicon band is including in the package. IMPORTANT: never leave the silicone band wrap around the head without camera. It will deform it.
camera holder
ChaseCam heads are produced with the newest available technology of 3D printing. IMPORTANT: prints are sensitive to heat and long-term pressure. Do not leave ChaseCam in hot/sunny places for long time. After flight do not leave camera inside and never leave the silicone band wrap around the head. Product cannot be exposed to long-term pressure therefore bungee rope cannot be wrapped around ChaseCam too tightly.
SkyBean ChaseCam weight is only 170 grams. In normal flight (approx. 40km/h), it produces about 1.5N brake force, enough to fly a safe distance from the lines.
SkyBean ChaseCam is connected to the canopy with bungee rope, stretched only 13% during normal flight, what brings extra safety in case it is accidentally tangled up in the lines. Please read user guide on our support page.

Safety
SkyBean ChaseCam was developed especially with a focus on safety. During normal flight, ChaseCam flies behind far enough with no adverse effect on the glider or flight speed. We know, as active pilots, what can happen in the air and because of that, we also tested SkyBean ChaseCam in non standart flight situations.
When you activate your speed system or when you turn a spiral, increased speed will produce more brake force and the bungee rope will be stretched more, therefore ChaseCam will go further away from the glider, and then the photo image takes in the entire canopy and pilot. There is some possibility that ChaseCam will tangle if incorrectly exiting from a spiral, like during a big wing-over. You can see a little kick in what is captured when you enter or leave a strong thermal, but don’t worry, safety level is high. Small wing-overs will bring ChaseCam closer to the lines with nice video effect. Really big wingovers can tangle ChaseCam into the lines, but with no safety concern; the photo image will temporarily face elsewhere. During asymmetrical collapse, dynamic or held, the glider is still moving forward, so ChaseCam still produces braking force, so this maneuver won’t tangle the ChaseCam. A dynamic frontal stall is usually recovered very quickly with some altitude lost, which will ensure no adverse effect on the ChaseCam’s position from the glider. During a B-stall, the glider will lose its forward speed, and therefore ChaseCam can be tangled in the lines, particularly if you pull it dynamically.
