Step 1: Identify the Helmet Mount Location

Locate the helmet mount on your helmet. It’s typically a flat, rectangular area on the top or side of the helmet. Clean the surface of the mount with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris.

Step 2: Attach the Helmet Mount

Align the helmet mount with the designated area on your helmet. Position the mount securely and use the mounting screws to tighten it. Ensure the mount is firmly attached and will not move during your activities.

Step 3: Install the Quick Release Plate

The Akaso EK7000 comes with a quick release plate that allows you to easily attach and detach the camera from the helmet mount. Slide the quick release plate into the slot on the bottom of the camera.

Step 4: Align the Camera with the Mount

Align the quick release plate on the camera with the corresponding slots on the helmet mount. Gently slide the camera onto the mount until it clicks into place.

Step 5: Secure the Camera

Tighten the screw on the side of the helmet mount to secure the camera. Ensure the camera is firmly attached and will not move during your activities.

Step 6: Adjust the Camera Angle

Once the camera is attached, adjust the angle of the camera to capture the desired perspective. Most helmet mounts allow you to tilt and swivel the camera to get the perfect shot.

Step 7: Test the Mount

Before you hit the trails or slopes, test the mount by shaking your head or moving the helmet around. Ensure the camera remains securely attached and does not wobble or move.

Additional Tips
