How do you handle a laser2 alone in higher winds?

How do you handle a laser2 alone in higher winds?

Im an experienced sailor and just got a laser2. Ive taken it out a few times with a friend and it was great. Today I took it out alone for the first time, hoping to be able to trapeze while I skipper but I spent most of the time capsizing. Im not sure if im doing something wrong or if I am just not heavy enough on my own to keep it up? I would start to heel, sheet out the main and hike and still capsize every time.

Mounting a camera to a dingy

I want to mount an insta360x5 camera to my laser2. All the mounts they sell seem to be more for bikes and other sports. There is a suction cup mount for surfboards im thinking could work, or the flexi strap mount. Im thinking the best option might be to just get the floating handle and case for the camera and tie it up to my mast with paracord. Has anyone mounted a camera to their boat and what did you use?
