Re: Cheap camera mount for 919

It vibrates a little because the thin aluminum is too springy. Thicker aluminum would be perfect. I took a nice video up in the mountains but it turned out to be 17 minutes long and i can't figure out how to cut it in half for Utube.
This is another one I made for the XR600.

Re: Cheap camera mount for 919

Why not try some rubber washers/gaskets/pads to help reduce the vibration?

It's not vibration on the 919 mount, it's the springy action of the thin aluminum and the weight of the camera making it bend down and up. I have some heavier aluminum to use which will make it stop springing up and down.
