Billy 0 #3 April 4, 2003 Thanks again for the info... Initially I baked my Mindwarp,, then mounted the camera D-box to it,, I was getting a lot of vibration on the video, especially at high speeds like in FF,, The D-box pulled that side of the helmet out, and ta get it tight enough ta stop the vibration it practically choked me... I'm wondering if I can/should rebake it with the D-box on it when I do the chin cup to get a better fit?? Whaddya think.... Again Thanks for the help guys Natural Born FlyerZ.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
