    Anyone know of a way to attach a GoPro to a military helicopter NVG mount for a hgu 56 p helmet?

    Thanks

    Mount it with velcro to the side of the helmet.

    Haven't seen one specifically that clips into the attachment.

    Then again, all my GoPro's are mounted ahead of the greenhouse and on the dash facing myself, so I can admire the videos of myself afterwards. :D :D

    HAHAHAHA!! Yeah, i want to get some of the scenery. I'm headed to a little chain of islands in the pacific later this year and think we might see some pretty cool stuff. Thanks for your help. I think i might just try to suction it to the windshield but im worried about the vibes.

    You might try to improvise something with zip ties and one of the AA battery pack adaptors. It's been a while but that might work as a link.

    Also- get a mounting plate for a camera and hysol it to the baseplate for the NVG mount on the visor shroud. You could probably get a visor shroud and baseplate spare fairly easily.
