DIY GoPro gimbal and stabiliser

This is a short film about my DIY project on GoPro gimbal and stabiliser. I wanted my GoPro stabilised during walking or running, e.g. after my kids on bicycle. This is one of many options to stabilise camera, maybe worth to try for some of you. Likely, once the Chinese after market stabilisers are cheaper and better, I will buy one of them, but till then I will use this DIY one. Films recorded during test were not improved digitally (e.g. stabilised), only trimmed and titles and icon were added. Some additional information on used parts: . old skater wheel 80 mm . pipe 100 mm . threaded rod M8: 40 cm . handle length 17 cm . grip length 9.5 cm (regular) . flat GoPro mount, but tripod mount could also be used . plate under GoPro flat mount: 6.5 x 4 cm . screws used in gimbal: M4 . balancer plate: 17.5 x 4 cm . nuts on balancer: M8 . painting: gloss black . big washers: 5 cm Link to video on more practice with stabiliser http://youtu.be/fDLlpaVxpsg Link to video on test of mini stabiliser http://youtu.be/kb0UuB5sOUk
