+        * [[https://goprotelemetryextractor.com/gopro-insta-dji-garmin-gpx#solution|Telemetry Overlay]] the editors of the wiki have been very happy using this software in conjunction with their GoPro videos. One minor caveat - at least in Windows - Telemetry Overlay creates large video cache files for performance and does not delete them. So you can take up a lot of disk space when you have generated a lot of videos with Overlay. You may want to go into settings and completely delete all of the cache files as you need from time to time.

You may want to put down a couple of layers of wide pipe tape or equivalent if you anticipate wanting to remove a RailBlaza or install it on a different boat. Otherwise removal may remove gel coat or paint also.
