.......My question is where do you place the tag???.......

I think in the case of @Terryscustom it's somewhere near the belly button! Freaky!

Well, now we have established how Bart's mind works

Actually @thelaw is the photo and video girl at most of the events we go to. She has a good eye for great shots of airplanes.

The GoPro head mount is $389 cheaper and does the same thing. I have been trying to talk myself into getting a GoPro and finally bought one. But personally I couldn't justify purchasing this.

Sick and twisted Bart. Lucky you have @thelaw with you Terry. Seen some of her shots...she's a pretty amazing little photographer. Since it's just me and the big 'uns, gonna go spend some money today. New Sony Cam and a Soloshot to boot.

Except this zoom's with the compatible camera. That way it does not look like you are flying in the next county. I tried a hat mount once and did some low on the deck stuff about 20 feet in front of me and on the vid it looks like I'm 20 yards away. That's the main reason I'm thinking about one. Great for maidens and 3D throw-downs!!

That makes sense then, no experience with the GoPro as of yet.

It appears that this system uses the 2.4 band to transmit positional GPS data between the tag and the base. It is using the zigbee network technology.

So it's short-range low-rate wireless data transfer using 2.4 GHz with no possibility of interference with our 2.4 tx to rx link?

Very good question Mike. I am still a little concerned about that aspect.
