The111 1 #1 September 20, 2005 I noticed the D-boxes Bonehead has for these cameras are recommended as top mounts but say they "can" be side mounted as well. I also noticed they are a little wider than the PC series, with the HC90 (the one I am most interested in) being the widest (1/2" wider than the PC boxes, I think). Would that extra width, on a side mount, create a greater hazard/hassle? Thanks.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmidgley 0 #2 September 20, 2005 Hi I have a HC42 side mounted in an aluminium box of my own construction. I haven't measured it but on a sight comparison I'd say it was no wider than a 2KC FF2. The box is wide enough to allow an ordinary LANC 90deg plug to fit between the camera body and the side of the helmet - in fact I could probably shave a few mm off if I made another box. I can't believe the camera's any wider than a PC120, say. Over the last 60 jumps I've taken to reaching up to the risers as they start to take weight, and moving my helmet back through them. Oddly, since I've being doing this I haven't had any more off-heading openings (Sabre2). I also haven't had any riser slaps. Regards John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freekflyguy 0 #3 September 20, 2005 I have a HC30 which I top mount on a FTP in a D Box, and side mount on a Pro Tec with out the D Box. I have had no probs with it being side mounted at all. BuzzIt's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
