Joeman Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 My new Mobius action camera arrived yesterday.Not had a chance to take it out on the bike yet, but took it with me when walking the dogs, so once the video is uploaded i'll share a link.Its quite a bit smaller than the Sports DV camera, but its in a plastic, non-waterproof case.Films at 1080p (30fps) or 720p (60fps)Sample footage from dog walk today: Quote
Joeman Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 This is the Mobius next to the Sports DV:And this is how i attached it to the bike:The sun came out (so much for storms and lightening!!) so i took the bike for a nice ride in the sun...............And this is how the camera looked when i got home:F*$K IT!!! - I'm NEVER trusting Chinese sticky tape again - even if it is supplied with the camera!!!

Joeman Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 Missing in action... I rode round the same route, but couldn't find it. Probably been squashed by now... Quote
Ricky Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 If you drop your s1000rr at mine I can do a thorough look through it for you? Quote
Joeman Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 If you drop your s1000rr at mine I can do a thorough look through it for you? Lol,Already checked.. No sign of the little bugger..Just hope it recorded over the footage... If someone hand its into the police and they watch the footage, they might ask some questions! Quote
Tango Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Oooppsss.... I have to say that I don't trust any of this sticky stuff......bits of metal and nuts & bolts are the only way.... Quote
Ian_1986 Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Gutted, i don't trust any of this sticky stuff for this type of application. I've even got a strap on my helmet to my drift camera just incase. Quote
Joeman Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 I was pretty impressed with this little camera. Lots of config options. Its configured from the PC using some easy to use software. No messing about with text files.Other review are good too, so I'll probably order a replacement... I'll stick a safety cord on the next one though!! Quote
Chrissb6 Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Bad luck Mate! Just wondering if the mud guard hit it whilst you where on the brakes? It looks a bit tight in there. You might want to back track to some of the braking points on your ride to see if came off around there just a thought. Quote
Tankbag Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Bad luck dude, I secured mine with sticky pad but I used an extendible key fob thing as a fail safe line to a mirror Quote

You might want to back track to some of the braking points on your ride to see if came off around there just a thought. Yeah I wondered the same.. I'll measure the clearances before attaching my next one.Already backtracked the whole route, but no sign of it. Amazing the crap you notice at the side of the road whilst looking for a lost camera!!

Joeman Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 New camera arrived today.In fact since I lost my last one, in ordered two! Quote
Tango Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 2?.....looking at producing some 3D footage then Joe?..... Quote
Joeman Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 2?.....looking at producing some 3D footage then Joe?..... Did wonder about that!My aim has always been to have one forward and one rear facing, or one mounted low down on the side to watch the suspension move and the wheel lifting etc. Could make for some exciting footage!
