@lmankj Ended up making my own mount between the heli and camera frame from rubber grommets and soft foam, along with getting the blade balance right. The tail rotor had been the source of most of the vibration.
@lmankj Yes, but they are too light to balance the same way as the main blades. I removed the rotor head from the main shaft and the rudder control link from the tail rotor and run up to full speed feeling for vibration on the tail boom, then add very small amounts of tape to the tail blade. Mark the blades and take a guess at first. if the vibration reduces then keep working on that blade, if the vibration increases on the first go then work on the other blade. buildin a vibration sensor next
hell of a clear video!! any pics of your mounting that camera, im real interested in doing the same so cool thanks rich

Compared to the previous video, looks like you have the heli/mount dialed in. Amazed at the absence of vibs at spoil up, very nice.

@EyesOverWA Did you balance the blades on the tail rotor as well?
