I click with my mouth instead of clapping. That makes a higher pitched sound which is easier to detect. Also, comes in handy when your hands aren't free.

There's annoying audio clipping at higher revs, you need to get it farther away from the exhaust, inside a backpack would be better, especially if it has an internal pocket in the upper portion of the main stowage compartment.

I was thinking to use the voice recorder on my phone then sync in editing. Wind shouldn't be an issue since it'll be in my pocket. Hopefully it doesn't sound muffled. There's the "Meeting" settings which uses all the mics on the phone I believe mine has 3 which should be the best bet over "Normal" 🤔
