Yeah it's not for everyday use as I'll be using the one on the headstock mostly, but it's good to have a selection of mounts during a ride out.
If your helmet is an R-PHA 10 Plus, then you can also mount it on the chin bar If it's the older R-PHA 10, then it's top or side mount only :/
Just mounted to the lower left hand panel with the suction cup, does pick up a bit of wind noise at speed but hardly any camera shake
Old style RPHA10 callum. Like the vid Andy, which software did you use to select only one colour on B&W? More mounts arrived today, so as I was working on the track bike anyway I thought I would add them. Put one on the headstock. And this is the HESD plate I made for the RR5 that the mount sticks to (yes I know the cam is pointing down a bit). It's basically a plate with the HESD bolts running through it with a pair of plastic number plate nuts on the underside.
Thanks, Video software is Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Very simple to use, has loads of pre-set filters which can all be applied on the fly
Nice lid! Have you got a link for the case please, I feel the need, the need to upgrade my cardboard box Is that a panning head for time lapse? I have a 1 hour one and 2 minute one made from a pot noodle timer.
Hi Al. Yes i think you had the matte black one in Scotland? The case was £17 at http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/L-Size-Sh...2Bx5%2ByVApmtSuHR%2BY%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc The silver thing is indeed a 60 min timer for time lapse stuff. Didn't know you could get a 2min timer though, might have a look for one now.
I got times wrong, its 4 minutes not 2 it would appear! NOVELTY POT NOODLE 4 MINUTE TIMER * RARE* | eBay
Still ok for the quicker stuff though. Got my 1hr timer here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kitchen-M...d=100005&prg=1048&rk=2&rkt=4&sd=171224827211&
This is the mount I preferred at Cadwell. Similar to Colin's, but I used a J-Mount to get the GoPro to sit upright from a vertical mount. The J-Mount and tether. Here's a video from Cadwell that I cut together from all 4 mounting positions (front of nose, facing rear on tail, facing forwards on tail, top yoke).
. TBH, I never feel fully confident of those stick-on mounts. I wonder why helmet makers don't produce a hat with a built-in top/front or side gopro mount. Same with bikes. One on the rear and one on the front under a removable, clip-on plastic cover would be nice. Nick.
I was wondering where to put it , I am going round brands hatch tuesday .... Thinking of putting a pad behind my pillion seat???
So those using a suction mount. Can you recommend a brand/seller ? I really want mine mounted down side so I can see the front wheel in the video too. Looked on eBay and they range from £2.99 to £30. Cheers in advance.
Are you sure you need a suction mount? I used a combination of the GoPro extensions to get the cam sidewards off the tail on mine. Just make sure you attach a tether just in case Skip to 3:20 for the vid using this mount n.b. Should have pointed it higher, but gives you an idea.
