why is th camera mounted upside down

The camera is upside down when the mount is first shipped. When you disconnect the connecter from the mount to the camera, you can flip it so the camera is right side up. It's fairly simple.

It's wherever you aim the camera and the direction you need to travel that makes the difference. There is no "reverse mode".

the position of camera is on the front, you can take pictures turning it around, the problem is, that quality is very poor.

Yes it is. Besides the fact that it extends up to 1.80m, the mount end cen be turned 180 degrees back and forth. So you can hold it horizontally and place the camera towards your direction or opposite. I hope I cleared it out.

I see that this camera mount already requires the camera to be mounted upside down (at least that's what's indicated in the configuration shown in the photograph). Unless you flip the mount around 180 degrees it will only flip up, not down. If you did mount it so it flipped down you'd find it's too close for a decent shot anyway (probably get a shot of your wide eyes and flared nostrils as you head over a cliff but not much more). And yes, if you flipped it either way you would have to correct the image during editing). Also be careful if flipping it down below the helmet as it will then be in the way of your vision and outside of the protection of your helmet. So if you can't see where you're going and take a tumble the camera could well come between your face and the dirt. No easy answer except to say that if the face shot is important, maybe 2 cameras would be the solution, one facing in and the other facing out.

It could be that a tiny obstacle has entered your camera and caused this, or that the mechanics of the cover have been compromised, or that there's a glitch in the 'computer' workings of the camera. I have seen this in many other makes and models, and if your warranty doesn't cover it then try to manually move it one way or the other. Most likely a spring came loose. Bummer, though.

I insalled similar camera (the chrome one) with stud facing front and camera facing down. Installed on a truck tail gate. Image is upside down. I should of asked before I bought!

Depending on what you are using it for. I have found that if I need to use the camera pointed in an upward position, it doesn't work very well. Your camera is secure, but the weight of the camera seems to shift it downward. If you just need to go straight or downward to keep things still, it works fine.

The holder is probably upside down, I had that happen to me when I first installed

A small allen wrench was included in the box. On one of the upper corners of the actual camera housing there is a small hole. Insert the allen wrench into the hole and loosen it. Adjust it to the angle you want and then tighten it.

It's not. It is offset to the left by about a quarter if an inch. That's because it screws directly into the cameras mount screw which is in the same location.

If you mount it on the windshield, your camera will record upside down. If you can flip the video over in your computer then it will look OK. If you place the dash mountadapter on the dash then the device will be in a position to mount the camera upright.

I would not try mounting this camera upside down since it was designed for a vertical surface. Am sure you can find an alternative.

Just turn the camera upside down. On the bottom you will see a rectangular slot for the cable.

Some cameras are setup to reverse the image themselves, so without changing any settings it depends on the camera. But the unit provides a setting, so you can have it either way.

it doesn't no; if you are concerned with it interfering with other optics, the camera actually rotates in the mounting housing so it can be mounted either top, side, or bottom and still get the picture right side up.

There is a small hole located near the edge, top center. This hole is designed to go around the eye of the internal camera. You may have yours installed upside down or it may be partially covering it. If partially covering, you should readjust it so that it is not. If the hole is on the opposite end of your camera, you just need to remove and flip over. However, in removing and flipping over the protector could get dirty, in which case, I recommend disposing current protector and installing a new one.
