That way you will only really see out the front windows. That in turn will cut down width and hight. Another little trick. If the camera sits too high on a car or engine you can turn it upside down so the lens is lower to the track. There's a flip mode so when the camera is running it flips the picture. Hope this helps. I have three GoPros so can help with most questions. Botttom shot is a still we shot from a drone. We were shooting 4K video and taking stills at the same time. Don

Thanks for the additional color, Don.  Wonderful and valuable pointers/advice.  

 

I'm not sure I have that functionality on mine as I do not have the 4, but the 3 White Edition.  Will have to check.  That is a fabulous shot btw!!

 

Additional question, do you recommend any good video editing software?
