paradoxum Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 Pictures of all the bits and things. I can get them on but it can look kind of ugly. https://imgur.com/a/oYXKXsI Any info needed to help? Can't seem to find some simple adapter. Oh, I can take the headsets off the stock handles entirely but the third party ones have no grip at all because it's only a claw grip so they slip off easily, or i'd just do that. So I need either better mounts or a way to fit it with the current ones.
Supporters Lozart Posted May 29, 2019 Supporters Posted May 29, 2019 Sack off the ones that come with the headset, they're shite. Find either a legit set or the FMA knock offs of the Unity Tactical MARK helmet adaptors. They're WAY better and smaller too. Here's mine:
paradoxum Posted May 29, 2019 Author Posted May 29, 2019 I realised you could pull the metal wire out of the connectors: Works good for now.
paradoxum Posted May 29, 2019 Author Posted May 29, 2019 Does this look like a good fit? Planning to get a better base helm (emerson) soon. https://imgur.com/a/8JnMe4M

Supporters Druid799 Posted May 29, 2019 Supporters Posted May 29, 2019 That’s a good helmet but basically any Emerson or FMA will suit the purpose.?

The ear area is cut higher to allow the earcups on the headset to sit in the right place, standard FAST style helmets come lower down the side of your head.

Will get something a lot cheaper on Fleabay , just stick with UK only sellers and ones with high feedback scores .?
paradoxum Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 Got my £70 emerson bucket and started gearing it up. https://imgur.com/a/GwZ4t2Q Fits so much better with the strap on the rear tightened as much as they could, I guess I have a small head - at least it doesn't wobble around anymore. Also put all the extra padding inside too, really comfy and the chinstrap helps a ton. Should the helm light be on the right side, traditionally? being left handed I just put it there but looks a bit odd with the battery storage sticking out of the bottom. GDI Represent! https://imgur.com/a/CjC4DP2 What are those soft velcro straps on the front/back of the helmet covers? There's nothing for them to stick to so I just threaded them through those On 29/05/2019 at 13:56, Lozart said: Sack off the ones that come with the headset, they're shite. Find either a legit set or the FMA knock offs of the Unity Tactical MARK helmet adaptors. They're WAY better and smaller too. Here's mine: Those adapters look great because of the small profile - with my helm light on the same rail as I need to have it on the second-to-last clip bit, still feels alright wearing it but wouldn't mind if they were forward one or two. Any idea if they do take up less horizontal space and where I can get some of those cheap? http://www.unitytactical.com/shop/mark-kit/ thanks again guys.
paradoxum Posted June 4, 2019 Author Posted June 4, 2019 I swapped the light to the right side because it looked off with the battery compartment on the bottom. How does the fitting look? And yeah I really need a mini gopro, I suppose the Xiaomi Yi can go on the rail of my gun or something. Wish I could find a black case for it though, the white is just a big 'shoot me' target.

Lokai Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Ok chaps i feel like a retard but for the life of me i can't fit my m32h to my helmet. Is this fitting supposed to slide into this rail on the helmet?

Is this fitting supposed to slide into this rail on the helmet? They're supposed to, but they're shit and don't actually stay in very well. Get yourself a set of the FMA Fara adaptors that I linked to above. They should slide into the rail so that the dovetail section on the back of the headset adaptor fits into the groove on the ARC rail. The little tab on the bottom of the adaptor pops into the little indents ion the ARC rail to stop it sliding back and forth.

Lokai Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Thanks, will pick up the above linked knock offs, no way at all i can seem to get the standard ones in.

Neither could I even with an Evermore helmet, so as you can see ended up using these wires / connectors from some set on amazon but swapping the bits that clip onto the headsets (just twist the metal part going into the headset mount a bit and pull): https://imgur.com/a/EEcdwhS On 06/06/2019 at 02:49, Gepard said: You need to apply a fair bit of force to get these replicas to slide in.

TMC Airframe, but they slide just fine into a cheapo Fast helmet I have too. Again, it's just applying enough force.

The ones using now take up about 4 or 5; I might have another go with the stock black ones but would rather get some tan ones to match or even just dark green.
