Hi I find the USB cable supplied with the new camarea too short. It would be good if the cable was 200mm long. I have to cut and extend the cables for proper installation and avoid kink on the wires. . ---

Hi Oystein, Thanks for the feedback. We have made the cable a little longer now and I think it works better. Feel free to email us at [support@bluerobotics.com](mailto:support@bluerobotics.com) if you’d like to get a replacement cable with your next order. -Rusty ---

Totally agree. I have some pull on wires when tilting down tweeking the camera a bit. Very difficult to install getting to this point. ---

Hi Doug, We can send you a slightly longer cable if you need it. The first batch worked, but it was a little short. Shoot me an email if you’d like to do that. -Rusty ---

Hi Rusty, Yes would like longer cable. Also, I see you have captive inserts now for the frame. Any chance I could get some as I already have two pulled as it is now. Thanks, Doug Trail ---

Rusty I have been away for a while in a jungle funny enough. I ordered my new camera yesterday. Did I get the longer lead? Thanks Julian ---
