    Hmmm I'll have to look there. Any recs for which GoPro to use? Obviously the 4 black is the best but are any of you running a 3?

    Very true. I'm going to explore some mount options. Do you guys know any place that has batteries in stock?

    I will know on Tuesday when it comes. I am searching CL for a good deal on 4 Black edition now. And RR I realize it is cool from a cinematoraphy standpoint, but that does not appeal to me.

    Appreciate the tips. I just hate how 3Dr took an approach like Apple to make you purchase their Gimbal and GoPro which are good but overpriced in my opinions.
