if you can send me the exact measurements of the sony you have I can plan a cradle for that. I am just sitting in front of the bird at the moment with laptop batt at a very very very low %... lol...

let me see what I can come up with.

cheers.

Can't wait to see the GP mount!!! Wonder if the I1 could handle my A6000 as well..... about 500g though thats a lot of extra weight.

Theres this cage for it but its really pricey http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/con...Ma53MKu1cQCFQpk7AodynQAVg&Q=&is=REG&A=details

So the final tally of my mods (all individually removable and impermanent) is 395 grams. Seem ok to everyone? Personally I think the main thing is to keep the weight as close to center and as balanced as possible. I have not flown with the Sony cam yet (heaviest item) because I need more flying time with the Inspire 1 in general.

no problem but is that inch?
looks like it

you missed the lens diameter. do you have a cm measurement possibility by any chance? if not that is not a big problem but in some pics the ruler numbers are not good visible...

cheers.

Lemme see if I got metric ruler and I will reshoot! do I get a discount cradle.
BTW, next week I am gonna post a possibly awesome low cost RTF case for Inspire and Phantom.
We'll see if it works out.

hit me with a mail and we´ll keep in touch there. (easier for me).
if you don´t have metric that is ok google is able to calculate

just make the numbers visible. try to write them down maybe.

How did you attach the mount? what kind of tape is that?

I've used this stuff for years. It's super strong and as long as you clean the surfaces prior to application, there is very little chance you will have a separation. Unless you have a major impact and then I think you'd have much bigger problems.
