after owning a number of the "regular" go-pros, I bought the 360 version & I thought it was much nicer. the ability to rotate the direction of view was super cool. in the end though the video just looked like any other video taken by someone with a go pro mounted to thier buggy.
IMO, you dont get a lot of perspective of speed, especially when the go pro "dampens" or "gimbles" the video. I tried to mount it up super high, but broke the mount right @ where it screws into the go pro & lost an expensive camera. its probably still @ the top of the hill @ by Brawley Slide with 2 weekends of video on it.
If I were to do it again, I would abandon go pro altogether & go with a REALLY nice drone to follow the pack. IMO, that is the way to go. this is the future of buggy videos.
