Is it possible to remove the helmet mount once is it attached via the adhesive? Does the helmet mount clip into a separate part or will i be stuck?

The helmet mount stays, it cannot be removed without removing the adhesive.

Honestly, I have an L bracket washer setup on my helmet. The helmet mount provided is an adhesive/strap combo, but it stands up off the top of your head like an tellatubby. It looks pretty ridiculous. I have mine mounted to the side of my head with an L shaped piece of metal and a few washers and long screws.

It's a 3M sticky back mount that attaches directly to the helmet. Once it's on, it's not coming off until you scrap it off.

You'll lose the adhesive but similar pads are availible at home improvement stores. I swapped them for velcro but they have issues attaching to the stock velcro.

The arm mounts to the helmet with Velcro. The rectangular piece in the picture velcros to a pad you permanently stick to the inside of the side of the helmet. The arm will come off easily and the pad on the helmet will not bother you.

I do not believe they have a stick on mount option. The clamp is plenty strong enough to stay on the helmet.

You're right on time. I've had several of these questions how to mount to an MTB helmet but I cannot explain it in typing. So I'm doing a youtube video how to do it since it's more 'visual' how to solve your problem.For your second question, yes, you can 'make' it be interchangeable with two helmets, but you will need a new 3M adhesive pad installed on the second helmet to make it possible. Stay tuned, it'll take a week to complete my youtube video. It'll be on youtube and do a keyword for my username: sticksofkansas.

It would be pretty difficult. The design of this mount relies on the 3M sticker which is a near-permanent bond to the helmet. I would suggest purchasing a strap mount. They simply stretch behind and over the helmet with straps and secure the camera to the helmet without any permanent residue or attachment. Best of luck, and have fun!

They also offer a helmet mount in several variations, I know that is not much help if you already own a mount though. It would not surprise me if they have your mount available and try it out their first. They have done that for me several times.

If you are talking about installation I always push the bottom part into the hole then push the top cap down. For removal I have pretty much always had to pry the head up which oftentimes just broke the clip. I just always used new clips. I rarely reuse one.

I have not been able to take my mount off. Seems like it's kind of stuck there.

Well, i did it using zip ties. The bracket that it comes with will not do it. The zip ties did the work for me. Another friend used rubber bands. Just be creative...the light gives you a great range when mounted on the helmet. It works really good for me. Zip ties will take you 2 minutes. Good luck!

Having used the adhesives only a handful of times I am by no means an expert but I don't think the mounts would not fit properly on the scope. The curved adhesives fit well on a helmet but the scope I would think is too circular. Maybe with some duct tape things can be finagled....but I'm not sure.

It can be attached to the side of a ballistic helmet however if it's on a picatany rail you'll need to buy a separate attachment piece. The helmet attachment mount is not picatany compatible.

No, It is not designed to be removed when you want to. The adhesive pad is a one-time/permanent application. The arm for the mirror and the mirror both pivot in a joint/socket so they can do a 360 degree turn. If you don't need/want it, simply rotate it close to the helmet and out of the way. I hope this helps.

No, it actually comes already attached. I could not find a way to remove it.

The mirror comes with two adhesive backed velcro strips. So, allegedly, it can be removed and even installed on a second helmet. However, I found the adhesive on the velcro was not really strong enough, and the mirror flew off the helmet while in use. I ended up using exterior grade double face tape. It is not removable now. That was my experience, YMMV.

You could glue it but might create issues later. The MIC should have a piece of velcro on the base end (opposite of the microphone), put a piece of velcro inside the helmet under the cheek pad and then place your mic base end there. This allows you to remove the mic to replace it if anything goes wrong and won't destroy the helmet taking it off.

I attached ot to the clear mount where the bolt and screw attach and then use the sticky anchor on my helmet. I still have my camera so I guess it works.
