Headrest action cam mount

muddtt · 09-25-2015, 11:25 AM

Finished my action cam mount. Just used the PVC pipe idea i've seen floating around online, but added parts from my 3d printer. Will try to get some footage uploaded soon. Here's a thingiverse link if you're interested in printing parts:

Post this in the DIY section too! Looks great! I'm going to do that over the winter.

Great job! Appreciated the post for having an Action Cam instead of a GoPro. The mount is nice too. I always used duct tape on mine

These videos are off a Sony HDR-AS15 shot at 1080/60fps...dunno how that will translate to youtube. 3 different videos. I'll put descriptions for each one.

1) Attached to drivers side chair with image stabilization on.

2) Attached to drivers side chair with image stabilization off. (this is why i went sony instead of gopro once upon a time.)

3) Attached to passenger side chair with image stabilization on. When i looked over the chair was actually bouncing around quite a bit which led to added shakes.

Yeah just so me and hopefully others can find it later on. But you had the writeup in your link, right? I think it's good
