The alternative to a camera extender that you should consider is a chest mount. Chest mounts are especially great choices for adventure sports fans – if you’re skydiving or taking a plunge in high places, the harness will help take stunning videos while freeing up your arms.

Although GoPro has its own chest harness, you don’t necessarily want to take it with you for traveling. The harness is rather heavy and it takes quite a bit of space in your luggage.

A much better option is the POV Action Mount. This is a smaller chest harness that actually helps you attach the GoPro directly to your backpack strap. It’s definitely a great alternative when you want to pack other stuff with you as well. It’s also very durable, so you don’t need to worry about it breaking down.

To know more about using this case and how you can customize it, watch the video review below by Max De Feijter who explains the various features and customizable options that this case provides to its users. For him, the case is perfect as he wanted one to fit a customized quadcopter and it's very difficult to design your own, so by arranging the pre-cut pixel foam, he not only managed to fit all the parts easily, but also saved on time!

Max was able to easily and comfortably fit in the remote control with its 2 control sticks separately, 5 batteries (also from Drone Pit Stop!), extra propellers, charging cord, the customized Hubsan quadcopter, a camera and its accompanying charger.

Basically, the case can be changed to create any number of spaces to fit accessories, however small or big, and you wouldn’t need to carry your tiny and delicate parts in a separate bag or box, leading to them getting lost or broken.
