[@randomusername202]

You good sir, are a legend. Thank you for the great tutorial.

[@kekoavan]

Well thank you. I'm glad I can help.

[@nicolai3899]

Thank you so much man I would be totally lost without your help thank you 👍

[@kekoavan]

No prob. I’m glad I could help

[@andreadancikova2908]

Thank u so much. This was a lifesaver. the direction sucked so I decided to watch it instead. Great job.

[@kekoavan]

I’m glad I could help.

[@easydubsyt1040]

Thanks so much got this for Christmas and now I can actually use it

[@JerradZonna]

Can confirm getting that tab popped up helps. I used my thin silver pry bar in an ifixit kit and it worked great. I had fogging issues then I just removed the top foam since it's under the helmet. This needs to be posted in the Amazon and evike listing lol.

[@kekoavan]

Man! For real!! Lol Good insight. Thanks for sharing.

[@IAmGeorgeyBoy]

If it wasn’t for this video I wouldn’t have gotten my mask set up to my helmet thank you so much!!!

[@kekoavan]

You are welcome

[@thebudgie6090]

Just bought one and those instructions are useless, appreciate you thanks for the help

[@0utcast_sceptic726]

This was a really good tutorial thank you.

[@kekoavan]

No Prob

[@SlammerDCS]

Thank you so much for the tutorial.

[@kekoavan]

No problem

[@NATORunt]

Very good sir thank you

[@kekoavan]

You are welcome

[@sheilareyes6902]

Thats why im here, i find the instructions manual garbage too.... thank for being here my friend

[@kekoavan]

My pleasure.

[@eternal_horizon7253]

Do you have to remove the forehead piece to attach it to the helmet or keep it

[@kekoavan]

Only if you want to switch out your clear Eye protection for the dark.

[@MicrowaveOven78]

Just curious, what size is the helmet featured in this video?

[@kekoavan]

I believe it’s an adjustable helmet that fits all. You adjust it to fit your head.

[@kraenovt]

Thinking of buying this but not sure if ther lens is strudy enough

[@kekoavan]

I think the lens is fine. I used it in battle and it held up pretty nice.

[@unxnown4627]

what do u do about ear protection? im thinking of buying it but ive seen the helmet and goggles fully built and it doesnt look like theres good ear protection.

[@kekoavan]

You can buy this for protection. www.evike.com/products/13911/

[@RemyPac]

If anyone is having difficulty getting the “push” clip to come off. I found that if you bend the tip of a fork and use that to crowbar it open. Metal forks are probably best

[@figrider]

A dessert fork does not even fit in the gap...

[@RemyPac]

@@figrider use a "kitchen" fork

[@DrayAviation]

Im struggling with the round thing on sides to pop out. I have removed the default strap by unscrew the bolt.

[@MYSHOTINYOURASS]

Did you manage to pop out these round things? I have the same problem as you

[@epicablaze]

​@@MYSHOTINYOURASS did you?

[@galaxyjuicegaming]

Me too i ended up dremeling them off

[@captian2044]

Does the pilot mask come with the helmet

[@kekoavan]

No.

[@OKar0123]

I hate fog as we all probably do, do these fog up AT ALL? I have some dual pane cheapy ones and they dont fog up at all. They recently broke (finally) and was looking for a new setup.

[@kekoavan]

I haven’t had any issue of fog, but if you do, you can always change them out to ones that don’t fog. I hope this helps.

[@Oofmart]

@@kekoavando you know what lenses are compatible?

[@kekoavan]

@@Oofmart when you go to your local store they will tell you what lenses fit best. I hope this helps

[@dj6401]

ok so I did excatly what you did, and when i tried to put it onto my helmet with the rail mounts after reading the instructions, it doesn't fit. Like as in when i put them on the rail mounts and try to push it in so it fits, the top part of the helmet prevents the actual mask from going in all the way, and I am using a size large helmet, so I don't really know what to do

[@fletchmoney2931]

Thanks I had to get a drill to get those screws loose. Great mask but damn they need to change that for future models.

[@kekoavan]

I agree. Thanks again for watching.

[@RinnyBeee]

How do you add the helmet? Ive been struggling for 2 days

[@kekoavan]

@@RinnyBeee you have to make sure that the helmet you’re using fits with the railing of the mask. Some helmets are not compatible with certain masks.

[@andrew9193]

Does this work with headset earpro when it is mounted to the helmet? or is there not enough room. From looking at it it might be possible if you have it attached as far forward as possible but I can' t tell without it in my hands.

[@kekoavan]

I haven’t tried headsets yet.

[@andrew9193]

@@grandmasterg0794 nah I’m still using separate eye pro atm

[@Domain_HBLH]

THANK YOU

[@kekoavan]

No Prob

[@Jay-np9sd]

Do you need to buy anything else to attach to the helmet?

[@kekoavan]

If you want you can buy a GoPro camera or a flashlight to attach to it.

[@Remcoairosft1138]

The for helping a lot❤

[@JoshAlfonso]

Quick question, can you wear glasses underneath the mask? Or is it too snug? Thanks.

[@kekoavan]

I haven’t tried it yet

[@SebastianGonzalez-ts9hi]

Do you know the endurance? They comply the ANSI z 87.1 ?

[@kekoavan]

I’m not sure on that. I’ll go to Evike and talk with someone on that. I live 5min from the shop.

[@SebastianGonzalez-ts9hi]

@@kekoavan thanks bro!

[@jeffersonabella160]

Is this comfortable to wear? Does it fog?

[@kekoavan]

I haven't had any issues with it.

[@RiseplayZ223]

Anyone know how to pop the circles out?? I cant do it

[@twissums]

could you please link the helmet you are using with the mask?

[@kekoavan]

Here you go www.evike.com/products/37345/

[@saucyrahimi]

Thanks for making this

[@kekoavan]

No Prob

[@wolves_zx267]

Is it glasses friendly? I have circular ones.

[@kekoavan]

I really don’t know. I haven’t tried glasses with it.

[@wolves_zx267]

@@kekoavan alright 👍

[@ChudestChud]

Do they fog

[@kekoavan]

It hasn’t fogged on me. If you have issues with fogging they have a spray you can use to put on your lens

[@freetayk9100]

The circle things on the side dont come out even after i took the things that hold the strap together off

[@kekoavan]

@@freetayk9100 It should just pop out when using your hand or tool

[@haydenforbes4856]

What would be the best top helmet for the mask

[@kekoavan]

The mask can fit on helmets that have the rails adapters on it. When you buy it ask Evike to help you with a helmet. That’s what I did.

[@RentAMint]

I can’t take those circle things off on the sides

[@kekoavan]

@@RentAMint what are you using to take them off

[@Zodiakorsum]

I don’t understand how to connect the mask to the helmet

[@IchBinWiz]

mine still won’t attach and my mask is practically destroyed me trying to put it together.

[@spartan5800]

You should put the black mask on the black helmet

[@kekoavan]

It's just a thumbNeil. I do have black on. I got the other one first.

[@spartan5800]

Nice

[@e1mortaldrox140]

Great video but for future references please add some light because I could barley see what you were doing

[@kekoavan]

Noted

[@Lilswicc08]

My screw won’t come out

[@kekoavan]

@@Lilswicc08 either get a bigger screwdriver or a small one I don’t know what you’re using

[@samthelegoman9370]

Thanks bro. Really helped

[@kekoavan]

No prob. I’m glad I can help

[@Mitoisis]

I’m thinking about getting these, but are the lenses strong enough to withstand bb impact? Not trying to lose my eyes lol

[@thebudgie6090]

Im not sure of the lense, but the plastic between the lense and the mesh is brittle and will after repeated hits, I test shot it upon delivery but I was also 3-4 feet away in cold weather

[@ssikrats]

next time please turn auto focus off when doing a video like this

[@Tactical_Reload1]

why is it so hard to take out the circles on the side
