Received mine and will be installing this weekend! Can't wait to start terrorizing

I was recording exhaust sound clips...as soon as the engine starts there is this terrible low crackling buzzing type sound that is constant until the engine is shut off. This was using the door with the slots and didn't have any wind noise up to 50mph.

Where was it mounted?

Do you have the vid uploaded so I can hear it?

Glokwork · 10-25-2011, 06:11 PM

I tried three mounts, first on the dummy foglight, then right above the burger on the rear and last on the driver quarter panel right at the rear wheel. I'll start uploading the last vid since it's the shortest.

Hmm, if it's the sound I'm thinking of, it may just be the case vibrating from your non resonated exhaust... I sometimes have a little rattling sound when I have it on the rear bumper and it's a bumpy road...

Glokwork · 10-25-2011, 06:15 PM

I think the exhaust tone is causing the sound as well, but everywhere I've put it including on the ground behind it, I get that shitty sound.

Maybe you might wanna see if the door is snapped on tight enough??

I checked the whole case out and the latched secured down very tight. Recorded in 60fps and playback is messed up, converting over to 30fps now then I'll upload.

Hmmmm...

Will have to see what you mean...

LoL Yeah, that's the sound I thought you were talking about. Nothing wrong with your gopro, mine does the same thing... You'll hear it in this vid pretty good.

I think it has to due with harmonics from the exhaust, that's all since it's only apparent when the exhaust is in low rpms...

Also, be kinda weary about that mounting spot as you'll see with mine...

Dammit, I thought that only meant if other sites tried to use it. Ugh, now I need to go through and re-edit them all.

But your noise isn't something wrong, that's just the nature of gopro's with our exhaust... Not sure if any other cam would have better results if placed in similar locations. But if you're sure about taking it, try out another HD cam and let me know what you think.

I'm looking into getting a 2nd gopro so I can film more than 1 angle per run.
