@Adam,

Nice implementation of the GoPro HD camera gimbal. Did you build it yourself or can it be purchased from a supplier?

I plan to mount a GoPro on the bottom of my Maja, but I will be using landing gear so I will not have to protect the camera when taking off or landing.

Regards,

I did not build any part of what is shown in the video.  I'm still working on finishing my Maja build.  Electronics and navagation now.

nice stuff, but you should add a sensor for automatic retract, that need training to syncronise the retract

 

anyway good job and nice gopro support

The mount is more than half the price of a naked GoPro Hero HD. It may be worth the price, but still seems a little steep.

Just a thought.

Here is a cheaper mount from Readymaderc: http://www.readymaderc.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&a...

Can be purchased with or without servos. I have purchased Readymaderc pods for my EZ*s and Twinstar IIs and have been very satisfied with the quality of the equipment.
