3DR Aero - Custom GoPro 4 Mount

I am purchasing the 3DR Aero and want to use my GoPro 4 as a downward facing camera for surveying.  I am by no means an engineer and am new to the drone scene, 6 months with a DJI Phantom Vision Plus 2. 

Any ideas on how I could customize a downward facing mount in my Aero without screwing up the center of gravity, etc?  It would be great to have a protective casing on the bottom that can open and close as well but that can come later.  I am just nervous about cutting a circle in the bottom of the Aero and screwing it all up.

  • A GoPro in the fuselage won't have much impact on the CG of a Skywalker. I have a 650g camera in mine.
    If you put the hole under the wings it will have virtually no effect. Just cut a hole. It's foam and very forgiving if you make a mistake. You can always make a plug for the hole.
