Batbone/Tricopter Gimbal mounting - pictures/suggestions

Hi everyone,

So I've built my first tricopter (FT Batbone) and have taken CPO's zip tie idea and created a gopro camera tray mount.

All good so far and I'm just practicing flying.

In the future I would like to attach a gimbal so I've been researching. The Flitetest motor mounts don't give the biggest ground clearance, which pretty much rules out mounting the gimbal underneath the frame (unless I extend them somehow) which leaves mounting on the front.

This guy has modded a gimbal to be front mounted but on a quad

Anyone got any other ideas/suggestions/pictures?

All advice greatly received :cool:

Thanks

Greg
