Default Anyone use a flip ultra HD?

I tried using it on my last session and it did well with the video but audio is all wind noise.. I wish I could get some engine/exhaust sound recorded but need to drown out wind noise first - any ideas?

thanks

Does it have a mic jack? If so, you could try a wired handsfree mic behind the seat.

I use one for recording my golf swing at the driving range. It has probably saved me $2k in lessons.

Sorry, can't help on the sound issue.

no mic input and as silly as it sounds I cannot figure out where the mic opening is on the case. I might just buy a sponge in lowes and make a case for the camera out of it with cutouts for the lens and lcd

Right under the lens near the light I think. I'd have to go find mine.

sounds great... the flip doesnt have any real time output - how is yours hooked up?
