Re: R90s smoking after startup

I build my own action camera mount

Because the GoPro helmet mount that I bought did not fit on my flip-open helmet, I designed my own solution, together with my son Michiel.
In this video I did test the helmet mount with three different actioncams, two GoPro's and a cheap Chinese actioncam.
