Dear Go Pro,
Your cameras are fun little toys. The video they take are interesting and helpful. I like watching them. However, your stupid mounting system leaves a lot to be desired. I have literally used your camera about 6 times, and more than 1/2 of the times I've had incidents.
Incident 1 (First time I used the camera). The screw backed out and the camera fell off the bike. Fortunately, we managed to find the camera and it came out relatively unscathed aside from some scrapes and scuffs. I will also not hold you responsible for this since I might not have tightened it enough.
Incident 2: I tightened the fuck out of the screw, and cracked the clear case. Fan fucking tastic. 40 bucks to order another one, or do I risk losing it again? Fuck it, Ill fix it.
Incident 3: The screw backs out AGAIN and I lose the nut part, but at least I see it before I lose the camera. Lovely.
Incident 4: I dont over tighten it, but enough so that it doesnt slide around, and put some locktite on the screw so the nut wont back off again. Get back home, camera intact, take it off the bike to get video footage. Somehow the black mounting part has broken. Into chunks. Theres black plastic chunks everywhere.
So dear Go Pro, maybe I'm an idiot or unlucky or maybe its you. Either way, I am not happy. (well which one am I then!)
