Thanks for making the products. I've got an rs1 on the way and will use it for a GoPro \ iPhone mount on track days. I'll post a few photos once it's in place. Also, given that my iPhone and the current GoPros all use USB C for power I'll also work on basic routing for a cable from the glove box up to the mirror to provide power.
Looking forward to seeing the pics!

is there a way to fit a magsafe charger within the phone mount?
That is an interesting question. The back of the mount has a hole in it where a threaded nut currently is that could be drilled to run wires through for the MagSafe charger. My only concern would be the thickness of the charger and if there's enough room for it plus the phone to be held in place. Thinner the better, but I think it can be done. If not with the phone mount we include, I know there are other phone mounts with GoPro knuckles that are thicker.

thank you, i did place an order so let me try tinkering with some drilling and hopefully i can post some photos/results
Do you have a phone mount that holds the phone vertically? That's needed for navigation on my Pixel at least.
Great solution from CayCaySwift. If you'd like the phone to mount higher up and towards the rear view mirror, you could use one of these from Amazon that allows your phone to be vertical. Use this in tandem with the 1/4" camera adapter that comes in the RoadSpy package:
Quick note on the rs1. I have a Garmin Catalyst and the camera mounts perfectly to this with the accessories including by Garmin. I've done three track sessions at Road Atlanta with it and it worked perfectly. I'm combining the rs1 with a mount from Anima Motorsports and have an integrated, secure and good looking mounting system for the Catalyst and I can swap the Anima mount for a 1" ball from Amazon and get a magsafe mount. Love it, looks nearly factory and very secure.
Nice run and footage! Here's a solution to having the phone (or any device) too low, we have a new kit that will be up on our website either by end of next week or in 2 weeks. It's called the OuttaSight Kit and features 5 pieces that can be configured in multiple ways with your RoadSpy. You can mount a camera hidden right behind the mirror itself or push the device forward towards the windshield. The kit cost is $27.50. There's a lot of ways to configure the kit using 1, 2, 3, 4 or all 5 pieces. Here's a few examples, more to come in the next week:
