Camera Mounting and Aiming
Mount on Dual Track System
The XTC300 was innovatively designed with an identical dual track
mount system on either side of the camera . This allows you to mount it
on both sides of a helmet with ease . In addition, the main mount piece is
interchangeable and can be moved from the helmet mount to the goggle
mount . This eliminates the hassle of having to remount the camera
every time .
To mount the camera on the main mount piece, slide the camera onto
the dual track system with the two notches on the mount facing towards
the back of the camera .
To detach the camera from the main mount, hold the camera with the
lens facing away from you . Press down the mount release switch and pull
the mount towards yourself .
Aiming the Camera when mounted with the dual track mount:
When mounting the camera on a helmet, you must do the following:
1 . Consider what you would like to shoot and mount the camera
accordingly- left side, right side or top .
2. Find a flat surface and ensure the area is clean of dirt and debris .
Remove the cover of the adhesive pad and adhere to the helmet .
3 . Once attached, adjust the camera to be sure you are not filming the
sky or the ground .
Mount using the Thread Mount
On the bottom of the XTC300 is a standard thread mount that allows
the camera to be mounted to a tripod or other fixture with a 1/4-20
(1/4” diameter, 20 threads per inch) 5/16 deep thread . The vented
helmet strap mount is a screw type mount. To affix the camera, insert
the screw on the mount into the camera thread and rotate the camera
clockwise to tighten down onto the screw .
