Has anyone that has the backpack tried setting up a GoPro with the lining on the shoulder straps? Linus mentioned adding a lining to the straps for a walkie-talkie to but I am curious if anyone found it useful for a GoPro and if so how you go about strapping it on? I just ordered the bag so I don't have one of my own yet and am looking to get a GoPro for traveling in the near future and was curious if anyone has tested this out yet.

do you have any links to what you are writing about, I am not sure what you mean.

do you mean a mount that mounts to the backpack strap? I don't have any experience with it. but somethingh like this could get bouncy.

Or do you want the camera there just to be ready for filming?

What about peak design capture clip? you could keep Gopro on it too, if you have a mount for it.

The strap attachment bolts together sandwiching the backpack strap.

I've not tried it, but seems like an good solution.

Being new to GoPro i figured the camera itself came with some basic tools for strapping it to helmets, backpacks, and other less unique travel items so I was wondering if there was an easy way to strap it to the lining of the ltt store backpack with the out of box go pro pieces. Basically was thinking I could avoid buying accessories for the GoPro if the walkie-talkie straps worked in this case as well but I based on what I have seen go pro pushes you into accessories for this kinda thing depending on your use case which is both good and bad.

 

Thank you for your input though I didn't see that one. It seems there are quite a few different companies making GoPro accessories.

If you use a full face helmet I recommend Gnartec Ultimate Chin Mount.

it's metal, has rubber pad, and uses two zip ties to secure it, it works great. The camera won't move.

It's universal it will fit any full face helmet. I have it, it's been great. no complaints.

if you just want it to be accessible a  walkie talkie strap might work, basically same thing, but you might not want to deal with the Velcro straps on such holders.

are you referring to something like this? if that's what you need why not. Models with a clip exist so you just open it and click it in place. But I can't come with any recommendation. But such solution requires you to open Velcro strap take it out.
