How come you don't view in real time what you are doing?
Also cone off the area where you are working?

I'd put the cones round the generator as it was on narrow path.

Tbh only just starting using the cam so all takes time to learn I guess.

You got a video you can show me smurf so I can take the tips please

I was not having a go but just asking that's all as if you can view what you are doing can speed things up if areas of guttering don't need clearing or on tricky bits make sure they are all clear before moving on to do the next section. On jobs like that though you will need a shed load of batteries and hope your phone don't die on you as wifi will drain both using the gopro app for a long time.  ;D

Tips:
Rather van struggle with sods/crap stuck on the end of the nozzle and having to drop the pole each time just turn the motors off and do a controlled drop instead in a safe place.

You can also get a remote from maplins that will turn the power on/off if working on your own but at that height have your mate turn it off/on under your instruction. Also he/she can also managed the vac, leads etc so you can be more productive.

To reduce neck and shoulders pain/fatigue I find a necprotech also helps on large jobs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqPXXoAtJXY
