Here you go my heli friends...

You would only need to buy the handle bar mount for the go pro, put some foam to absorve vibration in the tail and place it in the forward side of the tail boom.

That;s it... just fly and have fun!

Take a look at my video flying with the camera.

Interesting POV, looking back down the tail.

Most of the vibrations seem to have been reduced, though not eliminated. That's one of the hardest aspects of helicopters this size: not much room or lifting capacity to install vibration-dampening systems.

While it's important to reduce vibrations as much as possible, it's still necessary to have some kind of vibration isolation to make it look really smooth.

I've posted notes and photos of some of the things I've done in search of a smooth camera mount. It's getting better, tho still not perfect.
