Taste of what's to come for me this summer :)

Just noticed this thread!!


Yes is a mobius action cam. The mount is stuck to the lower side faring with 3m sticky pads.

Impretty impressed with these little cameras. The downside is that they need to be mounted horizontally, but ive modified a spare to turn the lens 90degrees to mount it vertically as a helmet cam. I'll upload some pics at some point. I think it might be the ultimate budget helmet cam!!

Joeman, I'm going to ask a dumbass question now but why do they have to be mounted horizontally ?


:cheers:

 

I'll take a picture for you...

On the right is how the camera is supposed to mounted - horizontally, but that looks stupid sticking out of the side of a helmet.

So i opened one up, chopped it about a bit, and rotated the lens 90 degrees so that i can mount the camera vertically to the side of my helmet:

What i have now is a nice small, inconspicuous camera that doesnt stick out too far - not like the riders you see with a bloody great gopro sticking out the side of their helmets!

My mobius has got the super capacitor in it so needs a power supply. It's on the handlebar via the mirror mount, some of the engine noise comes through the frame and makes it sound like a dragster :mrgreen:
