Re: R90s smoking after startup
Have you recently started using another brand of oil ?
On a R100 I used to have, the problem disappeared when I bought higher quality oil.

I build my own action camera mount
Because the GoPro helmet mount that I bought did not fit on my flip-open helmet, I designed my own solution, together with my son Michiel.
In this video I did test the helmet mount with three different actioncams, two GoPro's and a cheap Chinese actioncam.
