    I got the p6l with wired controller and GPS, it's handy having the controller as it's mounted on the handle bars and it flashes to let you know it's recording, you can press it to take pictures and to save the last few minutes. Haven't tried the GPS tracking yet and need to adjust the camera angle as it's abit wonky on the front. Build quality is very good and so is the image although I need to strengthen the front bracket due to some vibration.
    I will do a proper review with play back once I've finished fettling :p

    I went with the wifi as i wont bother with the switch. Happy just to use the phone app. Went for the P6F model with a 64GB card
    Bike is still in getting repaired (waiting on a decal ffs)

    Yeah,
    It can be difficult to order without the app.

    I have put the front camera on the main part of the beak on the GS. The rear is attached to the underside of the rear rack.

    You guy's are lucky, difficult to mount on the street triple, I'm gonna have another looky at mine today to see if I can stop the vibration due to it being mounted on a longish bracket, the rear is fine.

    Thought that lens was the barrel of a 50 cal at first glance at the front ;-)

    I have uploaded the first run video to youtube on the SYS VSYS.
    Front looks a bit dark and needs to be positioned a bit higher
    Back looks ok.

    I have now moved mine up higher to allow more light to the lens and to eliminate getting the curve of the beak in every shot.

    Ok, so here's a vid from last month after I'd just fitted it, you can clearly see the camera vibration and when I inspected it the plastic bracket had actually snapped :rolleyes:.
    Will, hopefully, be going out later today with a revised bracket and a higher rated SD card.

    If you do not mind putting the post processing work in, a 360 cam is a wonderful thing. Game changer.

    Quick snippet but I think most of the vibration has gone, and the better SD card has definitely improved the quality.

    Thanks for posting Daffy. Good quality too. I take it it is set for a three minute loop? How many minutes do you get in total and what memory size? Ta

    Yeah, it's on a three-minute loop, think it goes up to five. Originally I ordered a 64GB SanDisk Ultra micro memory card, and although this was perfectly satisfactory, I felt it was always sort of trying to catch up and slightly pixellating during changes in lighting conditions, so I'm now using a 128GB SanDisk Extreme Pro which seems a lot better :). According to V-SYS you should get up to 11hrs recording, 6 for 64GB, before it over-writes and starts again.
    I've still got a slight vibration problem but will keep fettling until it's gone, at least it's better than it was :D.

    Others mileage may (and does judging by the thread!) differ, but I’ve always preferred helmet mounted, that way whatever you look at will be recorded and could be very useful as evidence in an accident etc..
