According to our action camera expert
With the Garmin Virb Ultra 30 action camera, a voice command is sufficient to start or stop recording, thanks to the integrated microphone. The image stabilization ensures that you record video without shocks or vibrations, so that you can view the images comfortably. With the Virb app, you can use your smartphone as a remote control to start recording your adventures wirelessly. You capture recordings at a resolution of up to 4K at 30fps. The sensors in the camera provide your videos with measurements ¿¿such as altitude, location, and ambient temperature. This is useful for when you want to keep track of your windsurfing, cycling, or skiing performances.

Garmin has made a great action cam that surpasses the Gopro 5. Media quality of the Virb Ultra 30 is comparable to the Gopro 5, but the Virb is 100 Euros cheaper and literally has more to offer than the Gopro 5. Where the Virb has a GPS, accelerometer and a barometer, Gopro only has to use GPS do which results in a much less accurate measurement. Virb Ultra 30 is the best action cam right now, period.

The intention is to use this cam when flying. Especially the (extensive) telemetry present is an absolute plus compared to the GoPro. Tested during aerobatic where we ran a 4g loop. Everything shot perfectly in 4K. the only thing that needs to be taken into account is that the moisture absorber must be placed. I didn't have this one yet, so the image vibrated because of the play in the case. Gopro mount.
For around 20 euros you can get a set of generic gopro mount feet, so you can easily mount on existing points (e.g. wing, cockpit)
Waiting eagerly for updates to Garmin's editing program.

Very good camera! Great image quality and lots of options.
The only downside I have experienced is that the gradient is not always correct (perhaps due to a short interruption of the GPS signal). However, this is very exceptional (a few seconds on +- 20 hours!).
Highly recommended!
