I did exactly that ... I bought the insta360 X4 to start my Moto Vlog, because it is so versatile. Ok, it has it's downsides, e.g. huge file sizes in 8K, much post production and less than 4K in the final video, but it's much fun and helps me to go beyond the boring helmet view.
I even turned the "Intelligent Noise Block" off on the Cardo, but it still would only pick up my voice on X4 and not the bike. Needless to say I'm playing with other mic/bike solutions. Another good thing about he Cardo, if you have it connected to the phone, you can listen to your Insta360 video playback if your using the Insta phone app. I was nice while I was reviewing my videos in the field. Realized I was getting to much wind noise. 😒
Great video! I am wanting to get into video capture of my rides. After watching your video I purchased this camera. Specifically for the audio capture features. The only question I have still is, how would one be able to record audio between 2 riders with pack talks, or is additional equipment needed? Thanks again for helping me make up my mind on the right camera for my needs.
Looking at 2 camera's for Motorcycle. I want great quality and versatility. Should I look at 2 x Insta 360x4's or 1 x Insta 360x4 & Osmo Action 4 / Ace ???? Just not sure if I can get enough cinematic footage with Insta 360?
The "no music" part of connecting the camera to the Cardo is the reason I don't do it. I tried the setup like you tested and found out first hand what happens. If I don't have tunes, I'm not riding, so that setup is a "no go" for most.
I love my X3. Still not seeing the bang for the buck with this one. The idea of higher res is nice, but if its done though AI not sure its worth it. Right now there seems to be nothing better than a bigger sensor and better glass. I enjoyed watching how you set up the shots.
If you're super happy with an X3 then I agree. Just to confirm though the sensors are bigger and you get a higher resolution file. It's not AI. AI is used when you want it to edit your clips for ya.
As always great videos and review on this cam 🥇How is the built in mic for recording? I have a Sena mesh in my Shoei GT Air 2 helmet and the X4 does not connect to Sena as of yet.
So the X4 have a 1/4 20 screw hole in the bottom so I just use a 1/4 20 screw to 2 prong action camera adapter and it'll go straight into your normal GoPro/Action camera mounts.
Currently on the fence on X4 vs Action 4. I will be riding to Sturgis and want to film the memories along with moving to Europe and want to film my outing when not on the bike. What would you recommend?
For that situation I'd go with the X4. It's going to be a better camera for overall experiences where I would say the Action 4 is a better dedicated action camera.
OC: Question - when you use it as single lens cam for the POV look for a motovlog, and after you frame the footage and crop it to look like a normal actioncam (with similar FOV), whats the resolution of that footage? its a 4k sensor, so i hope the cropped footage is still at least 1440p? Cheers
hmm, maybe i did not phrase my question good enoug or i dont know some detailed specs.. english isnt my 1st language too, so it does make it harder for me to explain.. FOV of 1 sensor & lense is 180degrees, and 4k, right! ("half the sphere" of the whole 360 mode)? so i guess to crop the FOV from 180 to maybe 120 degrees for using it as a helmet cam, i guess you do crop into the footage too, ergo-facto, you do crop into the 4k footage, making it a bit smaller than actuall 4k? if im still not good enough explaining it, maybe ill leave it just by this one question: the part of the footage you used while in POV mode and used it as a helmet camera, was that footage native 4k, or was it a bit upscaled? p.s. sorry cahse, if you still cant understand what im asking, just ignore this pile of confusing letters 😆
No it is not the best 360 camera😁😁😁 GoPro Fusion is far better, you are just sponsored by insta…your biggest influencer sins are coming back to life mate😂 that’s why you lost so many subscribers
@@chaseontwowheels@chaseontwowheels I thought 360 cameras were also action cameras. Has that changed? Anyone who pays gets better, good reviews. People should research properly and don't reply "influencers" because that's what they are.
@@DorianGRMC I guess it depends who ya ask but I don't consider a 360 camera like the X4 and an action camera like the DJI Action 4 as the same style camera. Sure they have some overlap if of how you could use them but I use them as totally different tools for different jobs so I don't consider them the same thing at all. Does that clear that up? Always here to help how I can.

Can you please list the gear used for mounting the insta360 camera, the extention poles and all the clamps etc.
OC: Outro killed me 😂😂😂😂😂 Definitely worth buying the X4. Just $500, which is so much cheaper than building a custom chasing camera drone.
I feel like that should be, "Now that I have lens guards, I can go to even more exciting places." Don't worry little guy, Chase still loves you.
13:50 - yeah, a video on bike mount best practices will be really great !!

Good job Chase you motivated me to go 360 afterall the earth 🌎 is round and so should your camera 📸 be 😅
Man, i miss the yummi and chase series
This is going to be my next camera. Hope there will be a Black Friday sale for it. Good review on how to use it for filming on a motorcycle.
Ain't no way in hell I'd ride with that big ass camera right in front of my face like that 😂
Yeah he’s tripping lmao 😂
there is a horizontal adaptor for it, I have it for my x3. Used to ride with it in vertical which was very distracting 😂
love the camera , just cant aford it at the moment , but im sure it would be grat shots with the supermoto , great video!
OC: we need an Easter egg sound drop of chase singing every time this camera is used in the channel going forward😂
Please create a video on best practices and best angles for recording on a bike

That is amazing thank for the tips
Great demo, thanks for all your effort. God bless you and your family! 😊🙏🏻❤
Please make a video on your best practices and best angles..
Where can I get the clamps for the selfie stick that were used for the gta shot @13:30
You missed the hud overlays ie speedometer, elevation etc from in post
Thoughts on using this on the roof/back window of a pickup while involved in a convoy/parade to get all around video of the event?
Please tell me kind sirs, what/where can i get the mount for the camera, what holds the invisible stick?
Having all that expensive equipment and nice bike and riding with a ruroc helmet is wiiiiillllddd😂
Isn't the view blocked by the cam viewfinder on the helmet?
That's why I use sena music and audio
What is this? Does it work with SENA 20S EVO?
isnt sena footage looks terrible

Great video!
Hello, do you think that the motorbikeset (heavy duty one) will work to use for enduro moto?
hows the low light quality?
The premium lens guard is great in theory but the little specs of dirt usually show up in the footage. I even saw them in some of your shots.
As always great videos and review on this cam 🥇How is the built in mic for recording?
I have a Sena mesh in my Shoei GT Air 2 helmet and the X4 does not connect to Sena as of yet.
Honestly if you use the little wind muffs it comes with the sound on board isn’t bad.
It should connect to sena
Do these have user replaceable lenses?
Yep
@@chaseontwowheelsnot the covers. The actual lenses. On the GoPro max you have to send it back to GP for the lens replacements.
what mount did you use at 3:07 ?
Which mount did you use for the helmet mount? Will this also work with a go pro helmet mount?
So the X4 have a 1/4 20 screw hole in the bottom so I just use a 1/4 20 screw to 2 prong action camera adapter and it'll go straight into your normal GoPro/Action camera mounts.

Single lens mode shoots up to 4k!
hmm, maybe i did not phrase my question good enoug or i dont know some detailed specs.. english isnt my 1st language too, so it does make it harder for me to explain..

if im still not good enough explaining it, maybe ill leave it just by this one question:
the part of the footage you used while in POV mode and used it as a helmet camera, was that footage native 4k, or was it a bit upscaled?
p.s. sorry cahse, if you still cant understand what im asking, just ignore this pile of confusing letters 😆
I used phone Redmi C13. I can't download the insta360 app.. it says my phone didn't compatible for the app..can anybody help me.. 😭
OC
OC: Given that my current cameras are a pair of Hero4 Blacks, this would be a worthy uograde!
Kinda shocked to hear a GoPro is still running that long
How bad is the extra post-processing step?
Depends how in depth you wanna go. It can be quick if you only make a few edits.
Top Speed you've use the camera in unicorn mode
Illegal lol
I would not stick it front of my field of view
When it’s that close you can’t even see it.
For the capability of this tech $500 is way fair
I just got myself a gopro hero 12.
Sorry to hear that
You’ll love the true feeling of the ride.
Oc
a small suggestion dont use camera protector on this again
Dude you need a lower chin mount😂 I know you can’t see shit with that thing in the way
Not a huge fan of those mounts. I hate not being able to sit my helmet down
No it is not the best 360 camera😁😁😁 GoPro Fusion is far better, you are just sponsored by insta…your biggest influencer sins are coming back to life mate😂 that’s why you lost so many subscribers
In November last year, he said DJI Action 4 was the best camera. The man is impossible. People should never take advice from these lot.
I stand behind that. Action 4 is best action cam. The X4 is easily the best 360 cam. Two totally different things.
@@africatwinpl9597 far better ?Only in Marvel universe 😂😂😂
