I love taking my CR-01 out when the other guys have Wraiths. The CR-01 in this video looks very capable. And that Wraith is crazy quick.

What camera are you using for this video?

It's my Hero 4 Black. Thanks man, I love my CR-01. It is bone stock other than the ProLine Hammers. I always feel that it's such a capable trail rig, but most people just overlook it. I trail that rig more than my Axials because it crawls better.

Thanks! GoPros really do put out great video.

I love my CR-01 too. I built one because it was so different and I hate having the same thing as everybody else on the trails. Mine looks very top heavy because it stands tall, but it surprises people with its capabilities.

A little bonus footage from the same day. A nice long single shot.

Nice! At about the 34 second mark, how close do you estimate your GoPro was to the Wraith? I have a different action cam and unless you have the camera very close to the car it looks far away in the video.

Lol, you made me go back and carefully watch my own video. At that time, I was about a foot away. Both the videos I posted in this thread were the first time I used the medium view angle, rather than the wide. It's why some of the shots appear cropped wrong, it was simply a learning experience as I wasn't using my phone for a monitor. For me, I think the medium angle is probably what I'll use for trail/crawl videos from now on as it looks better to my eyes. Hope that helps, and thanks for always watching my vids and commenting. I truly appreciate it. If you have a channel, give me a link and I'll sub.

I have a Xiaomi Yi and I also have to be about a foot away in order to get it to seem like it's close on video. I don't think I can change away from wide angle on the Xiaomi though. That's a cool feature that I didn't realize GoPro has. I'll have to check mine out.

It's one of the things I love about the GoPro. It offers 3 angles, wide, medium, and narrow. The things are amazing as far as I'm concerned. Worth every penny. I now have a Hero 4 black and silver, after just giving my 3 black and silver to a friend as a combo Xmas/bday present. He was stoked lol.

Jato, you want a new gopro3? Never even made a video, got it for x-mas and just not my thing. Gladly trade it out if you're interested.

Nice vid BTW, as the only poster left pretty much in the CR01 forum, always nice to see another getting out there.

Thanks OSRC!
