This mount has a 12" drop, but how close to the ceiling can the projector be mounted? Looking for minimal drop / flush mounting.

It can be mounted 3-4 inches from the top it is very adjustable but not flush to cieling

The base (bottom) of the projetor where the mount screws into will be 3.75" from the ceiling.

I have mine mounted almost directly above my theater chairs and it has never been an issue for me. You can hear it barely if there is silence in the movie but it is very slight. There are so many positives with his projector some barely audible fan noise is the least of my concerns. It's a great projector. I've had mine for about a year and use it every day just about.

Yes, just not from any flimsy ceiling tiles! Make sure you at least have a wood backing up there. Also, make SURE the mount will fit before you buy!! I had to seriously alter mine to get it to line up w the mounts on the projector but now it's pretty good. Good thing Amazon has a great return policy if not though. I like the pivoting feature and ease to tighten that. Hope this helps!

My camera is ceiling mounted. Works great. Did have some difficulty with a ceiling mount. Had to modify the one I purchased. Just make sure you check your screen size with distance. Here is a link to help estimate the distance from screen to projector. http://www.projectorcentral.com/Acer-H6510BD-projection-calculator-pro.htm

Honestly I don't think the designers thought of it: As far as I can tell you'll need a ceiling mount which cradles it, instead of one of those that simply bolts right into the projector, and on top of that; one that doesn't obscure the connectors, located on the right side towards the back, unless you only need VGA or USB which are on the back. But it can flip the image upside down.

That sounds about right. Mine is 16' away for a 100" diagonal screen. If you need something shorter I'd strongly suggest a short throw projector.

I'm not sure what a flush mount is. A plate is screwed into the ceiling. The mount is attached to the bottom of the projector. The projector gets installed upside down and there is about a 3 inch gap between the ceiling and projector when installed. This is the only experience I have with on of these but I had no problems with it, it adjusts easily and it breaks apart for easy projector removal. Hope that helps.

the Little nub on the bottom in the front is actually a screw which when turned will adjust the front end of the projector higher or all the way in is as low as it goes, I usually just place my projector on a small table or small stand or stage floor depending on where I am using it. You can buy a stand if you want to suspend it from the ceiling. I hope this info helps

Not sure I understand your question but we mounted our on the shortest downrod (closest to the ceiling) and it works wonderfully!

I'm using it at about 10.5 and it filled my 100" screen. It does have some adjustment so there is option. It is my guess it can do at less a 90" from 9 feet and get a adjustable wall mount not ceiling

Hi Lawrence. I am not an expert, but I do own the projector you are looking at. I also installed it in our theatre. We hung it at 15' out and the throw is tight. I can't imagine being able to set it up at 8'. But the expert is better to ask. I was able to get through to the BenQ customer service. They were very knowledgeable when I was installing. But it did take several days for them to call back.

I attached to the wood framing in the ceiling. I doubt a drop ceiling tile will hold the weight of the mount and projector.

This mount will adjust to absolutely any angle you need. If you are in a tight spot, then this is the mount for you.If you need to angle the projector "down" then you need a longer mount...one with a "down rod" preferably...Angling the image downward will cause a distortion, or trapezoid. It can be "corrected" with the keystone function, but that should be a last ditch attempt. You are far better off getting the right mount that will put your projector at the correct height for your screen.

If you use the extension pole that you purchase separately, then I would think you could make it work. I did not need the extension with my mount, but as long as you can mount the pole where it can hang straight down you should be fine. However, I cannot see this mount or any mount working alone on an angled ceiling. This unit has the ability to tilt, but if you factor in the projector that's connected to it, I feel the projector would hit the ceiling before you achieved the proper angle.

Not likely. Mine is mounted on a ten foot ceiling. And my picture doesnt start until below 8 foot. You use the keystone adjust to account for trapezooidal effect. The projector does however require a fairly specific ceiling mount.

The design of the projector mount is infinitely flexible and believe it would fit any projector on the market. The concrete ceiling should not be an issue also if you buy your own concrete mounting screws/materials, don't expect the mount to come with appropriate ones.

Yes, I have this projector ceiling mounted. You will have to buy the ceiling mounting bracket separately.Most projectors can be set up so they can project from the rear, from the front, right side up, or upside down.
