I noticed when I played it back at high speed that the aircraft yaws a lot, two and fro, over and over. Is this related to the V-Tail, weather, pilot or you haven't noticed?
Video always seems to exaggerate the V-tail wag. I don't notice it in the aeroplane unless the air is really lumpy cause it rotates around your bum if you are in the front seats.

Even if it really gets the waggles up in rough air, I don't bother to damp it if I am by myself.

Some 35's have a small ventral fin installed as a mod, while other's swear by yaw dampers.

Can't say it bothers me.

and a gopro approval i hope!
Its actually a Contour HD - on a ForkMount Mk4 (patent pending)!
