Where do you mount a camera on a mp3? I tried this: It's a bit crowdy inside the helmed and it looks foolish , but it works for me.

My GoPro came with two mounts, so I put one on top of my helmet and one on the dashboard of the bike so the camera points down at an angle, but the videos still look fine.

So there really are windmills in Holland.

It looks like it would be a bit cramped for me but if it works for you then cool. You could also use the built in mic to do commentary while you ride.

Nice fabrication.

I also think its a very interesting approach. but if you fall face forward with your helmet, it can be dangerous to the face ! , a rather preferred external fixation, for your safety ! there are cheap adhesive attachments to the gopro.

@ stickyfrog:You like windmills ? You can watch for 5 min to this windmill tour . Don't fall asleep.

Mine is mounted on the brake reservoir cover.
The cover does need some reinforcement or else the camera will pull it off.
My solution was to zip tie the cover down.

That works too, I have my GPS mounted the same way.

Before when I had the bars from the 400 and tupperware, I drilled a couple of holes in the plastic, mounted the camera to its flat base using 3M sticky pad, ran 1 bolt through the flat base, and used two more holes and zip tie.

(a little paranoid)

Now that I have the bars of a 500 on my 400. Clamp to the bars.

I seriously hated the plastic around the 400s bars.

This is how I mount mine...
Works Great.

if it's possible, I am absolutely happy to see a video of you

there is also this possibility

its easy to mount a camera, goto the 2 min mark and you can see my mounting method

I love bravo !. did a test with a stick and your video camera after , and after change the angle of view , you continue on with molten camera video editing, its can be good!

Or if you really want to get cool and make it look like you have a film crew try this. Originally posted in NSM by astromags. Built by guys from New Orleans Scooter Coop.

How it was done:

Be careful if you lane split.

wow! thank you so much stickyfrog for sharing, I am very interested for the system!
can be I'll do, but smaller .

Yeah I thought it was really cool when I first saw it too. I may try it for the fall gathering.

I think its a good idea to system, but the stick and a little too big, that there are a risk of destroy the gopro , with the cars or the trucks .
I began to study the problem , and I think, with the stick 70 cm of length its very well , compensated with a against -weight .

Will be interested in your results LLC. I was thinking about mounting on the top case. I know that won't get 360 degree shots because I will be in the way but it may give some cool perspectives.

ok, I think about all that, I do not promise a Imediat result, but with a little patience...

Rhino Cameras make this kind of mount. You can see it in some of the shots in this vid.

loulouclub, the music in the vid you posted was catchy in that 80's hairband kind of way. It made me nostalgic for the 80's

Merci beaucoup loulouclub, tres impressionnant. I enjoy swing music, and to share my love, here is the Squirrel Nut Zippers

I like the video too.

Here, finally one of my videos showing all angles of shooting ,that I tested .

my setup - happy with it so far

Hi stickyfrog

As promised, I present to everyone, results research of my prototype of the " rotor gopro " , it not finish but it advance , .... to be continued

" LLC "

Looks good LLC.

So one thing that has been bothering me. How do you keep that from hitting yourself in the head.

IM JUST JOKING!

here's what it looks like since, I upgraded the prototype.

enjoy

A good result. Looks like you got the balance just right. I do think the camera needs to be a little further away. Maybe 10 to 20 cm might do it. Or does the gopro allow a change in zoom? May zoom out a bit.

I have a gopro but haven't messed the the setting much.

Overall though it looks good. Have you got a picture of the finished rig you used in the video?

Hi stickyfrog

yes I agree I improve the support of 30 cm , now I'm past has a total length of 1 meter! the platform and still improving...! she and provisional, but does its job well. LOL
