Tarot Gimbal

If you are looking at gopro level payload I would consider building a multirotor though. I think you will be much happier. I put a skookum on align 800 a few years back. Self level was pretty nice.They have a GPS module now but its another $500. I would venture to guess that a NAZA H w/ gps is comparable but i don't know(worth a google). Not interested in helis for anything other than sport now. I drink the multirotor koolaid for AP.

Second the Tarot T2. I have one on my 550 Hex and get great results from it, especially considering the sub-$200 price point. Check out my Vimeo channel to see some examples of videos shot with it.

It makes it fly like a coaxial. You can have it set to a switch so it will snap to level. That way its like a bail out if you get disoriented. It will also level inverted.You can have it always on as well.
I would compare the naza H also though. The skookum with GPS will be close to a grand and naza H w/ gps is around $450. You are really limited to where you can film with a heli in my opinion though. Especially that size. Multi rotors are much safer.

there are a few threads on the site about these little gems and all of the users are enjoying them.

That's actually the one i own. Its a rock star. I recommend the tarot only if you want a little more instant gratification. (not ordering from hong kong).
