You gets with the standard package of Gopro
Hi everybody !
Actually that was not my last Vlog
I'm recording today after the question from a subscriber...
Namely : Drit Espanola Compagnie
To explain the equipment of my camera Gopro
As you can see it here
He asked me to show my fixation for the helmet...
You can see it right now
That's a curved fixation
With 2 little plastic gears
one normal gear
and one 90° conversion
To turn the camera by 90°
Which make a setting like this...
There are 2 possibilites...
You can put the camera in front of the helmet
But it can be a little too low
But many like it like me
Or you can put it on the top as in Cross competition...
Others put it...
... rather behind de glass
As we ride on the right side of the road, that's better on the left side !
So we can see the traffic...
With my last helmet, I put it on the back-right
Because of a selector for the sun glasses...
That's why I prefer to put it in front of the helmet
There is nothing the field of view of the camera
That worls pretty well !
a disadvantage when opening the helmet...
the camera look at the sky...
But it is not to hot here
Ik kan stand for closing my helmet...
So...
That was de fixation for the helmet...
For a modulable helmet type...
Easy to remove...
I added a rubber piece...
Which eliminate vibrations
and keep the camera from accidental fall of
Because of a contact with the shoulder for instance...
That's an inconvenient
If we put the camera too far from the helmet
and then you look backwards...
you may hit with your shoulder
You have to move up your head before passing your shoulder...
ok... this is not very easy...
But... this is the price to get nice views
You have to choose...
There are others possibilities
I talked about recording systems
I also use a mic
Which is here...
it crosses through the helmet protection
Look out the cable is short...
I also use it to phone...
I use my cell phone with a set of cable
Like these :
I can connect to the cell phone
one cable for the audio and another for the mic...
And I use this mic !
Pay attention to the cable a little short...
On the Transalp, it's ok I'm not far away from the handlebar
But on a Bandit...
That's a little short on dimensions...
Usefull to note...
There is a hole here in the skeleton housing
I can connect
a USB plug
to a USB hub
delivering 5v from to USB slot
Usefull for Cell phone and camera
I turn it off to avoid battery wasting
When alternator is off
I also use a suction cup
I haven't used it yet on the motorbike...
... but I put it here as example
I use it mainly in cars when I am not on...
... my motorbike
I also have a harnas
Not very used currently...
But as I chand my wind-screen
... which was a good protection against wind but not for video
That can be used again
then I also use...
another equipement I have not installed today...
which come under the Top Case
and offer a clear view of the back
To take usefull views
and to see the fools behind us !
Another possibility is to put it on the crash-bars
With a set for bike and motorbike
Which offer a view of the front wheel
This is rather esthetic...
But that's not enough...
The view from the helmet is the best primary view !
So, I will not explain the phone equipement
That is also usefull but...
I will make another video to explain it
Then, do not hesitate to post a comment !

Like this one after the question of a subscriber :
"Drit Espanol Compagnie"
So do not hesitate ! Do like him !
If I can do it fast
I will !
It's always a pleasure to jump on my motorbike !
Do not hesitate !
Good evening and have a nice trip !
