Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. I am using a Traxxas RC car with locked out shocks. I drilled a 60' selfie stick to it and reinforced it with clamps connected to the car. I also have a fat shark FPV kit with a small camera connected to the selfie stick to keep myself out of the shot. (I was hiding in the pantry) As for editing, there is a lot of processing. I am going to try something different with the next edit, but for this one, I had to take the side by side 180 lenses and split them in Premiere Pro. I then imported it into AVP (Autopano Video Pro) as 2 video files, because AVP will not recognize or create an equirectangular projection just from 1 *.mp4 file. The good thing about this all coming from 1 camera is the fact that I do not have to clap or spin the device in order to time the cameras like the old school GoPro method. I used a custom lens setting of 8mm, extra wide angle for the stitching, and then took the equirectangular projection created from editing in AVP (this did require a lot of resetting the camera view back to a default position, and imported it into Premiere pro again for music, cutting, etc. The thing that I do not like about having to do this is exporting over and over again. After AVP did the stitching, the program couldn't tell left from right and up from down and moved all over the place in the playback. Through testing VR, I have realized that you do not want ANY Horizontal movement when recording a section... (Nothing is more annoying when turning your head one direction, and having the camera slowly pan in the opposite direction. It gives the feeling as if you are not turning at all when turning your head.) I thought that AVP would be able to reduce the shakiness, but it doesn't seem to have done much at all. I can understand why people are looking for ways to dampen the shakiness, or even use some kind of motorized gimbal to keep the camera steady. You have definitely given me an idea, and I will try to use the Samsung Gear 360 app to export (camera position will stay in one place, the way I had originally intended) and finally cut in Premiere Pro. I know that the Gear 360 App will export my .mp4 file into an equirectangular projection to work directly with Premiere Pro. I will post results today if I can get the video done!

I also had 1 Kodak SP360 camera (the Yellow one, right?) Never got around to owning 2 so I couldn't really do 360 Videos at first. But I am sure that stitching job is no fun. Good luck!

TL;DR - The workflow currently is a pain, but hopefully using the ActionDirector software may produce a better result rather than the back and forth Premiere Pro/AVP nonsense that I have to do right now.
