    Default Launch Helmetcams VIO POV1

    Read all about it and watch the videos here.

    Edit: the videos may not work in Firefox or Safari, but should be ok in IE7. I'm working on getting them sorted out so they work properly whatever browser you use...

    Yeah these camera's are nice, thinking of buying on of the analogue comp ones. For your interest... there are few vids people here might think are cool.

    Go Here!

    The 3rd vid down has a clip of Tolosa (hobart, tas) of the road gap and bombshell, and the 4th vid is a sweet vid by Farkin.net!

    Is it me (my PC) or are those clips in showing crappy colour. I see purples and greens instead offull colour.

    I've just bought this unit and haven't had the chance to use it yet. I want to get some footage like Rennie on Drift 3 where the camera is looking back on him. Can anybody give me instructions on the easiest and best way of achieving this?

    yeah they looked nice and simple from ads I'd seen in mags etc so it's good to read a review that confirms it.
    I wonder what the RRP - I know it's mentioned that it's over a grand but I can't see an actual figure??
    cheers

    Check the website. The base unit is actually under a grand.

    I'm thinking about getting one for myself, everything I've heard has been good so far.

    Might be a nice investment

    Strap a golf club/stick to your helmet with the camera pointing back at you, done.
