Bren,
        boxed up a couple of cams for you but still in my glove compartment ready to post because the good weather made me fly all day  ;D

Sorry but will post on Monday  :+

These are both 38mm single board cams so might be a little wider than your mount in that pic.... nothing glue won't sort!

you will need 3 pin mini molex picoblade type leads as i had none spare!

Thanks for that wiggles  ;D ... I'm plain out here!  there's 2 cams both with different 3 pin molex but which ever one you send will fit at least one of them.

Be aware that the pin configuration may not be what is required by the camera. I have already fallen foul of this and burnt a camera because a step up power board had the positive and the signal wire in the wrong orientation. They are easy to change around. Lift the locking tab with a scalpel and pull the pin out. I would suggest you check connections before plugging in. Will post your connectors next week and let you know when done. W

Velcro on both the pod and battery, then secured with a velcro strap to stop slipping.
