Making the DJI Phantom more user friendly

After getting my hands on  phantom and attaching a Go-pro, my first videos where far from perfect.
The dreaded "jello" effect was there, so off with the camera mount it was. After experimenting with
various bits of foam and rubber I decided on a carbon fiber plate with rubber grommets, there are a few on the web but I thought I would make one my self incorporating a few ideas.

.
 
 
The second mod was to Get hold of a set of carbon fiber props, these where sourced from +RC-Timer.
Just needed to drill a 8mm hole, fitted perfectly and needed no balancing.




 
 
 
(Just thought I would mention, the phantom came with a few faults, 1: Battery charger faulty, 2:one motor bearing very noisy.
 I could have returned it to the shop, but I am in NZ and I bought it from the UK, and it would of taken ages for the turnaround, added to that the shop was not that helpful on the phone, so I didn't want to be mucked about with the return.  I bought a turnigy computer charger to replace the standard one, much more accurate. And I ordered a couple of spare motors from www.buzzflyer.co.uk  DJI original replacement's (NZ$32.00 the pair) 8 day delivery time, Brilliant. They also sell original DJI complete body kits, ESC,s, Transmitters, landing gear and phantom compasses.

    The Phantom Quadcopter will need a very good company who can supply the perfect items in fully working condition. The nimble use of fingers will be crucial for the Phantom 2 Vision + to work really well. The DJI Parts are important and they should be brought over from the best places. The drone ground station must be an important part of the whole thing.
