*Please read about this requested video* When my friend & cameraman Jeff is not available, I resort to using my hands free EyeGlassPod to make my videos.
Who cares what it looks like as long as it works! NO ONE is around to see me anyway! If there was, I wouldn't need this in the first place! LOL.
So make your own. Once you get your camera lined up with your eyesight, glue the 1/4-20 bolt on to the sunglasses frames, let dry, and Voila.
Since we mostly look at our models when flying, you will find you get pretty good shots, no camera noises, and good sound from you and the model.

Amazing Goop is the only glue that worked for me since it does not crack like Super Glues or Epoxy.

So I hope you can make your own and get those FPV video shots.
Happy flying.

  • awesome idea - awesome execution. Nice one, as usual, Mr Herbert :)

  • @BrotherBloat Thanks very kindly.

  • Not the best fashion statement, but it sure is clever!

  • @SvenOkonomi Thanks,but I don't care what it looks like anyway, 'cause nobody is around, for gosh sakes, or I wouldn't need it in the first place!

    I don't live in California anymore and nobody cares what you look like here in Iowa. LOL.

  • Why not patent it and make a few million o.O :p

  • @99minerkc I own patents and all were a waste of money since right next door to the "Patent Office" is the "Knockoff Office"! They changed the design very slightly, send it to China to be made and now sell it way cheaper. So I simply feel good that someone may use my idea without spending too much money and get good results without worrying what they look like because if someone was around you wouldn't need this Eyeglass Pod anyway! LOL. Thanks for the comments.
