Why do you say that in the past tense? Don't they make those versions anymore? And how different is the case? So different that it wouldn't be able to use the waterproof case?
That means they could have the same problems with the heat in the long run as the others, when used as a dashcam? If I decide to go with it my plan is to stick the waterproof case to the helmet, so I don't know if it'll cool that much inside it, even with the heat transfer bands that come with Joovuu's case.
My plan from the beginning was to use the sticky back mount. The M10 comes with two of these mounts.
It would be very difficult to have a passenger helping me to aim the camera because my bike is a single-seater.
You could experiment with some decent double-stick tape and a safety string securing the cam should the tape fail while testing. Once you find the exact right spot, reattach with a better adhesive. I can't comment about the waterproof case and cooling, but without the case I think you'd be OK as long as you keep the helmet and cam out of the sun and turned off when not riding. You could use super-caps but that would require a power lead from bike to cam which could fail without notice, and to me anyway those things are too awkward. I guess all you can do is try and perhaps have a new battery ready should the old one give problems.
