GoPro Camera Housings

Hi All,

I have just purchased a GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition. All is good with the camera and I have a place where I am going to mount it. But I want to put permanent aircraft power to it and am intending to buy the NFlightCam kit which allows it to connect to the audio system and provides an aviator lens to minimise prop distortion.

But looking at it, all the mounting kits require the waterproof housing that comes with it. I cannot seem to see a way that I can mount it using the supplied accessories and also get in to the side of it so that cables can be connected. I have looked around for other mounts and they all seem to rely on the fact that you will be using the waterproof housing.

Three questions really, how do you mount it without using the waterproof housing, is the aviator lens kit any good and do all the accessories for the HERO3 fit the HERO3+ as most specify for the HERO3 not the plus?

Many thanks in advance.
