Treated myself to one from deal extreme, potential bargain methinks.

I would love to know how the wind noise is with this.





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

The link for the TechMoan review has a very good video review and the reviewer takes it out on a motorbike but I think he has it in the waterproof case. Well worth watching.

Got one for myself a couple of months ago, excellent value for money.

The first video in my turbo buggy thread was shot with that camera, sound is good too.

Just watched the review. It does look good so I will get one.
He does mention the massive issue of not being able to turn it on or off while its in the waterproof case!!

I wonder if holding down the menu button or something will turn it on.

Just want to say thanks to 40inches for putting this up. I have brought one and received, it feels very good quality.
Also the one I have received has a different water proof box that DOES allow it to be turned on from the outside with out taking it out.

Happy times.

I've got one to fit to a quadcopter, but i've tried it on the kitcar too, the bike handle bar mount just fits mnr rollbar tube, though i think i needed to put longer bolts in sound was good inside the waterproof case. there are 2 verions of the waterproof case, the 5 button one (no power button) is meant to leak a lot, that's the one i have so it's not been in water yet

Usually deal extreme orders seem take 2-3 weeks to arrive.

They e-mailed today to tell me this will be out for stock for 6 days.

Well, I finally got round to ordering one. Only took 4 months . I have a feeling it will be a clone at £54 delivered, we shall have to see.
I could do one of those pointless unboxing videos you see on YouTube, but TechMoan has already done it. So I will pop it in the tin top and put a video on YouTube. Stay tuned
