Thinking about picking this up and attaching it to the modifry/panavise quick-release base. It won't block the screen or the camera, and RAM cradles seem to get very good reviews. Anyone tried it?




And another topic: Has anyone found a good muffler to block wind noise from your iPhone mic? (That's another thing I like about this mount -- if I find a muffler that works, I can stick it on the bottom of the mount and have a one-piece solution.)

 

If you are using an iPhone to record video you can connect the ear buds and use the "+" button to start and stop recording (on the 4s). This will help a lot if your mount places the phone behind you and/or if you wish to cut down some wind noise. I have not tried it with HLT though.

 

Wow. I can't believe I never thought of using the headphones as a remote mic - brilliant! I'm going to stash an extra pair in the car just for that.

I haven't downloaded HLT yet but I'll confirm that it works as soon as I do.

 

I ended up purchasing an Acer Iconia Tab to use for my car.
The things that I wanted which narrowed down my choices were:
GPS - for Trackmaster and daily navigation.
Android Market - required for Torque
3 axis accelerometer - for Trackmaster
Bluetooth - to connect Torque
I also purchase a Ram Mount, that I will use in conjunction with a Modifry Dash Mount.
The Iconia Tab comes in a 7 inch size (A100) which is about perfect for a car, and a 10 inch (A500) which is more functional if you want to use it for more than just the car.
My S2000 is parked for the winter, so as far as functionality of Torque, Trackmaster, and nav apps, I'll have to test them with my CR-V.

 

Downloaded HLT last night and tried the "+" button to start video. It doesn't work on the phone or on the headphone cord (time for a feature request maybe?). However, headphones work great as a remote mic!

In my very brief and unscientific test, the craptastic apple headphones' mic sounded about the same as the iPhone 4's built-in mic, whereas my $20 skullcandy headphones reduced ambient noise pick-up considerably.

 

Jeff I saw the + button work on Erics car. Maybe he can chime in and tell use how it worked. Do you have the iphone4, 4s or touch?

 

Josh I was only taking video (on a 4s). I don't have HLT app yet.

 

Yeah, the + button has been an alternate shutter button since iOS 5 came out, but it's not integrated into Harry's app (yet?).

FWIW, I'm using an iPhone 4. So I can't just tell Siri to start timing my laps either.

 

I have a PLX Kiwi Wifi for sale, if anybody is looking to use their Iphone to read codes, or datalog info.

Dave's got me thinking and I'd like to be able to back up the camera to see more if I choose to. The question is where can I buy these post?




mounting it like this ^^ you get a bit of a wider view but I need post for the back to hold it down. As of right it viberates some because the back of the mount isn't bolted down.


I'm thinking the post I need are Mcmaster part number 93500A115
