I am struggling to get the angle right on the chest mount. It is either facing the ground or my chin - how do I make it flush with my chest?

you need to use the hook shaped GoPro mount. That we the camera can be level

Are you using a J-hook adapter? This should allow you to position the GoPro camera at whatever angle you want. Something like this (this link is not the 'GoPro' brand, but pictures the adapter for your reference): http://www.amazon.com/Smatree%C2%AE-Vertical-Surface-J-Hook-Buckle/dp/B00ESWS3OQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1419613960&sr=8-2&keywords=gopro+j+hook

GoPro camera comes with a set of links and screws. Put them together to reach the desired alignment. Although GoPro camera will not flush to the chest, it will align well enough to produce good videos/photos.EXPERT's TIP: The head mount is the best GoPro mount of all time, and great for all photo/filming purposes. That mount has been serving the purpose of all Professionals as well as beginners. Try and compare different filming situations using head vs. chest mount.

I tried to adjust it too... no luck.... just use less water in the tank and aim it to the side.... the beta will get used to the current :)

There are two adjustments bolts at the base of the tilt. Adjust the one on the left until you get a true 45 degree.

Bending into a 90 degree angle is not the appropriate fix. Another comment by Nick Thomas is more correct. There should be an alternative mounting plate that came with the mount. You simply re-configure the base of the 18" flex gooseneck so that it has the vertical compatible bracket on it. If you're missing this item, email feedback@arkon.com and they'll help you out.

I am a 38" waist. It is slightly loose on me. It still has some adjustment to go both directions. I hope this helps. As an ex Army Spec ops guy, most chest rigs always feel loose.

That puzzeled me as well. The picture here shows it facing the other way. When I received it I put it on the way it had to go, used it and then began to wonder why it was "backward". Took it apart but realized there is only one way it goes. My issue is that the balance seems off, bag tips over too easily if it shifts while I play. J

there are two grip settings. you're probably using the one meant for thicker vents. Rotate the back 90 degrees and use the tighter one.

I had the same problem. Easiest solution is to get a styrofoam cup, cut it down into strips and put them between the monitor and mount. This will provide a nice cushion as well a firm mount for the monitor. Hope this helps.

Just fix and tight the mount untill you can move the phone with some pressure, then just move the phone to the right or left. The car mount release system is different from the bike/running release system. Hope it help, works great for me!

As a curvy woman, I was not able to get the chest mount to work properly when I was working with my horse. I would try the head mount.

I read somewhere that if you are standing up, the top of the TV needs to be at eye level and if you are sitting down, the bottom frame of the TV needs to be at eye level. That said, I have options on my mount to swivel & tilt it a bit for minor adjustment. I have had it mounted this way for a couple months now without any neck aches. :)

It does sit high so your chin is up a bit, I never got hurt or anything, but a typical [read as "proper"] cheek weld is out of the question with the original military stock. youll want a stock with a higher comb. the mount itself is very solid, you'll want to use loctite on the nuts though.

Mr. Rashad. I have installed this item myself. Unfortunately, the only way to adjust the height of mount is to switch out the different sized poles. You can tilt and change the direction of view, but the height only has two different settings and must be set by switching out the short or long pole extension. I hope this helps:)

Make sure that you have clearance all the way around, If this is OK you may have an alignment problem from side to side. Look how it tracks over the full close and open movement, Try adjusting one side either back or front and see if this will help.

It took me several adjustments to get it to fit right. Try letting out on the front adjustment and tightening the one that goes around the chest to see if that might move the straps back . That worked on mine . you could probably make some fleece pads if that doesnt work and than readjust . Remember that this halter isnt meant to be that total answer to pulling. They also still need training as well. It just throws them a bit off when they try to pull. Before our Poodle got the hang of the harness and training he sort of learned to walk sideways to make the harness not work the way it should lol!

I tried it both ways. When I attached both straps the got in the way when trying to position the camera. It is possible that I got it wrong, but I don't think so.
