Big Foot Dual Mount for GoPro
The Big Foot Dual Mount for GoPro is a mounting accessory that lets you attach two GoPro-style accessories or devices from a single mounting point. It is a simple way to get more out of your existing mounts, for example running a camera alongside a light, or fitting two cameras to film from two angles at once.
Big Foot offers a wide range of affordable airsoft and outdoor accessories, including mounts and grips for action cameras. A dual mount suits players and content creators who film their games, as well as anyone who uses action cameras for cycling, motorsport or outdoor activities and wants a more flexible set-up.
How it works
The mount attaches to a standard GoPro-style mounting point, such as a helmet mount, rail mount, handlebar mount or grip, and provides two GoPro-style mounting positions in place of one. Each device is secured with its own thumbscrew. Check the product images to see the exact layout and how the two positions are arranged.
Using two cameras means you can capture both your point of view and a second angle, such as one facing back towards you, without needing a second mounting point on your helmet or rifle.
Setting it up
Keep the combined weight sensible, especially on a helmet; two cameras on one point can make a helmet front-heavy and put extra strain on the base mount. Tighten each thumbscrew firmly by hand, and check that neither device obstructs your sight lines or the operation of your replica.

Compatibility
GoPro and most action cameras that use the same two- or three-prong mounting system, or that sit in a GoPro-style frame or housing, can be attached. Check how your camera mounts before ordering; some cameras need their own frame or an adapter to use GoPro-style accessories.
The dual mount works with GoPro-style helmet, rail, grip and bar mounts. If you fit it to a rail-mounted base on a replica, make sure the cameras sit clear of your optic and charging handle.
Care and maintenance
Brush or wipe off dirt and mud after use and let the mount dry before storing it. Check the thumbscrews and pivots for wear from time to time and do not over-tighten them, as this can strip threads or crack the mounting fingers.
Always make sure the camera is fully secured before a game or ride, and consider a lanyard or tether for extra security when filming in rough conditions.
Who is it for?
This dual mount is for action camera users who want to film from two angles at once, or run a camera alongside another GoPro-style accessory, from a single mounting point.
Please note: Cameras and other mounts are not included.
