In an attempt to eliminate viewing the landing gear feet and the forward engine mount from videos taken from my GoPro mounted to my gimbal, I came up with the following. I attached an aluminum tube (same material as the frame arms) to the x468 Landing Gear and mounted the GoPro to the end of it using a nylon screw and the GoPro's tripod mount. In an attempt to help isolate the camera from vibration, I added a rubber hose washer between the aluminum tube and the mount. Here's a couple of photos of the configuration.

The attached video is the result. Obviously the camera is not centered, but that doesn't seem to be noticeable in the video. What is noticeable is a bit of movement from the whole rig. It was a bit windy this morning when I was filming and I recently migrated from 3S to 4S batteries. I suspect I need to adjust the gains a bit because of that. BTW, this is raw footage from the camera, and only clipped to shorten the duration.

Anyway, I thought I'd share this for what it's worth.
