At the weekend, I fitted a Mobius Action Camera to my Trex 600e Pro DFC
- using the handle-bar adapter, and some kitchen towel to bulk it up a bit!
The skids on my 600e are the Carbon Fibre type, which makes them a little wider than the normal ones, I think
- but I still needed to pad them out with a little kitchen towel in order to get a good firm grip from the Mobius Handle Bar fitment adapter.
- I think the kitchen towel should also help with damping down vibrations.
I tried the Mobius in 1080p/30fps mode, and 720p/60fps mode
- the 1080p/30 mode gives better results, with a wider field of view, which I think gives a much better view from the heli.
I'm pretty pleased with the quality of the results, and the camera is reasonably cheap, and light enough for a 600 size heli
- but the Camera & Adapter may be a little heavy for a 450 size heli for example
- and the Handle-bar adapter probably wouldn't fit properly on a 450 anyway, so a different mounting technique would be needed for this size of heli.
