Hi all,

 

I'm looking to invest in a budget helmet (for starters), upon which to mount my GoPro 7 - please could I have some advice on decent budget helmets that will provide a decent mount for a GoPro?

 

I've seen the following on Patrol Base - is it any good?

Many Thanks in advance!

Hi Henry, and welcome to the forum!

 

I can't comment on that exact helmet, but I use one of these: https://www.davescustomairsoft.co.uk/EmersonFastHelmet?search=EMERSON HELMET

 

I then bought one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07F28R65K/ref=asc_df_B07F28R65K58548619/?tag=googshopuk-21&creative=22146&creativeASIN=B07F28R65K&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309924740778&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1160736233406329025&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006501&hvtargid=pla-523248989404

 

Which simply clips in securely onto the NVG mount on the front of the helmet. I use a small cable tie as a lanyard in case for whatever reason the mount gets detached from the helmet! 

 

I'm using a GoPro Hero 4 Silver, but I'm pretty sure they all use the same sort of mounting's?

Or, if you happen to already have one of those terribly overpriced (and shit quality) genuine GoPro head bands, you could simply zip tie the front piece into a ball cap like I've done.

Get the FMA version of that helmet instead. It's WAY better. Look for FMA FTP Bump Helmet https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FMA-MIC-FTP-Bump-Helmet-EX-Airsoft-Elmetto-Softair-Cosplay-TB1044-BK-DE-FG-/123255502876
