After a lot of tweaking and modification, a few violent crashes and a lot of swearing I finally got my quadcopter to fly reasonably well with a GoPro camera mounted to it. There were a few camera vibration issues in the first half of the video which I solved by putting some dense foam underneath the camera, I also didn't realise that I had a string in the shot in the second half... Still learning!
