Hi Av8Chuck:
Thanks for the detailed reply! I have spent the last couple of days playing around with potential prototypes to make this easy. So far, I can only shoot from the window (safety reasons), so I cannot hang the gimbal anywhere. What I am developing is an elastic cord system, basically an arch from which I hang an elastic rope that will hold the camera in three points (front-end of lens, middle and body). The design is a bit more complex than that, but that's the basic idea behind. I have tried in a car on a bumpy road and it reduces vibrations and shake, although not perfect yet...
I hope to have something cool to upload, but I fear it will not be good quality.
Thanks for the tips!

Hi guys,
In the end the helicopter flight was cancelled due to weather, so I had no option to test the gymbal or nothing... anyway, thank you for the ideas, I hope to get the chance soon again!!
