Simon,

Have you tried contacting Meeker Aviation?

southerncanuck posts here, he is the owner and would most likely be able to help you

Southerncanuk's 120 nose mount is the business....truly a lovely piece of engineering. But what on earth do you want to hang an old FLIR on it for when you could have a beautifully stable Cineflex that would complement the mount nicely!

Cheers

Hi thanks for your responses.
We just bought a pole mount for an AS350 but Meeker do not have FAA validation on their pole mount for an EC120.
The side mount that Meeker makees and is approved doesn't give a good position for filming from.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for the info about the Cineflex can you give us a good price I have 200 bucks waiting!

regards

Not a lot!

There is not a lot of choice, and few (if any) ideal solutions; especially if you want to do it legally!

Maybe you need to change the type of camera ship!
