Another issue tackled is the removal of the second fuel pump and regulator. Instead i've run 2 separate feeds to each pair of carbs, with an inline fuel tap to each. The nitrous pump is then fed from both these hoses via a Y Piece. I have concerns though that the nitrous pump will siphon off too much fuel and deprive the carbs of any. I'll just run the pump when i get the bike outside and see what happens.
I did some research into helmet type cameras at first but they are all pretty expensive, most are just a camera lens and still require attaching to a recording device which you need to attach somewhere else. Also the quality of the recording on most of them is not what i would expect.
The flycam however is different, it's very very small as you can see from the pictures and is fully self contained. Recording to an ordinary SD flash card. The 1Gb card i fitted cost £4 and allows upto 40 minutes of recording at a resolution of 640x480.
The video quality is very good and the only trade off is the sound quality which isn't it's strong point. From what i can gather they are almost indestructible too so should survive a drag race or two!
Because it weighs almost nothing it can be attached using just a tiny square of velcro and it can be mounted pretty much anywhere and any way up as the lens can swivel through 90 degrees.And because it's designed with models in mind it has facility to be switched on remotely with pin outs for a remote switch.
There are some good reviews of the Flycamone2 on the net and some sample videos that show the quality of the video. Heres one from Youtube.
