The Fat Gecko Co-Pilot is an easy way to mount any camera in a vehicle, airplane or any place two windows face each other. For example the Co-Pilot allows the camera to be suspended in the rear of the plane looking between the seats. Once attached, the camera can be adjusted to shoot up or down, turned sideways or even reversed by loosening the two adjustment knobs on the mount.
How does the Co-Pilot mount?
The Co-Pilot utilizes patented Industrial suctions cups designed to carry plates of glass. The suction cups reticulate, meaning they can be turned at various angles by loosening the tightening knob. You simply push a button on the top of the suction cup, removing the air and causing a solid seal, and then push the locking tab upwards. This makes the Co-Pilot virtually "locked" to the window. To remove it, simply release the locking tab, and break the air tight seal on the suction cup by pulling up on the small plastic tab on the cup itself. The Co-Pilot has a suction cup on both ends, allowing you to secure it to the right and left window. This creates a stable base to mount a camera. Once mounted, the camera simply screws on to the 1/4 -20 standard post. This is the same post on all tripods and mounting hole on all cameras.
Will the Co-Pilot fit my plane or car?
The Co-Pilot adjusts in width to fit different back seats. By loosening the tightening tabs by hand, the Co-Pilot telescopes and will adjust to windows from 36" apart in its narrowest setting, all the way out to 49.5" and all sizes in between. Once a distance is set, you simply lock the tightening tabs and the Co-Pilot remains that length until you change it.
