Okay, sounds good, but take not, that this is not that stiff, brittle styro-foam. It is the softer kind that your epo planes come packaged in. I hardly ever toss away any of my packing materials, because it comes in handy for so much of my rc hobby. I'm even ready to use some of the styro-foam carton to line the insides of my new rc boat.:)

Just my own in-depth theory of what I believe will work for you. Always good idea to experiment.

I used white duct tape to secure the foam base down to the fuselage, that way I can move the foam base back, or forward just by untaping it and then re-taping it again. The foam has a slot cut into the top for my base servo to fit down into. The sticks are pop sickle sticks. If you check in the DIY section, I'm adding detailed instructions on building it, with pics and a video.

Acyually I am looking someting like that. simple and easy to use. easy to installation and preparation. I guess you had just use a kınd of foam for vibration. am I right? and you used tape for camera. I belive it is working correctly. and enough for recording as well. dou you have detailed pictures? I saw you used wooden pieces. if not no problem. I will use a foam and gel for stabilizing. I believe it will be enough. thanks again for your comment.

Sometimes it's best not to think things need be so complicated. That's why I love thinking, outside the box!

I've eleminated 98% of vibration and jello'ing by using a simple block of soft styrofoam as my base mount. Check out my youtube videos and you'll see how I have it set up. You can find me there under this screenname here.

That tripod looks kind of bulky & heavy to me, did you intend you to use all of it or just the balljoint & the clamp ? I realize that your plane can carry some extra weight, but I suggest you do a search on google & youtube for "Anti-vibration camera mount" to give you some ideas. Mounts can be made really light weight. I'm now working on cameramounts for a plane & an octocopter for a Panasonic handycam (250g) & a Panasonic hybrid cam( 610g). I'm only using light & soft materials for both the mounts itself and the dampening.
