I mounted the camera on the center strut around 12" or so (just past the nozzle) from the leading edge. Unfortunately with the wrist mount you cannot swivel it along the direction of the strut. You can rotate it to point a one of the wing tips if you want. I had to use an extra Velcro strap on my 16m Xbow to mount it around the strut. I also tied a piece of nylon line from the camera to the kite as a safety leash in case the Velcro came loose.

I'm still experimenting with different mounts. I plan to put one on the bottom of my kayak to see what that would look like while paddling. Also, one on my SUP once I get comfortable riding some small waves (I'm still learning). On my next trip to Busch Gardens I plan to film some action on the coasters.
