Great.. can you fly it over the water and will it float.

less frames per second to reduce the pulse?

I will give it a at shot 30pfs and see how it goes thank you.

Yeah worth a shot might work , I assume you have the camera set up on 60fps looking at that a slower frame might not pick up that bump...just a guess.

what helicopters do you guys use?

I'm assuming its got a gopro strapped to it?

just using a cheapy qs 8500 model. with the go pro.

Isolate the pan and tilt unit from the airframe will help reduce the shakes, it's not Hi Freq vibes so you have little jello wobble, you lucky there. Low freq is easier to fix. Without seeing the Chopper and the setup hard to advise a fix, but low freqs are usually flex or airflow downdraft, unless the chopper blades are really badly unbalanced. Nice quality video, what was the camera, a canon point and shoot with CCD sensor??

Rambo what program do you use to take out the shake in the video ?

Wow, surprised that was a GoPro, it looked somehow different. I just watched that video again and it IS full of jello, so a software stabilizer in post will only only blur the images when it reassembles them and only enhance the wobble. It really needs dampening at the source. If he shoots in 720p50fps it will help reduce it by 50% due to the way the GoPro resizes the different modes.

Otherwise if he wants to try a post stabilizer there is Deshaker, Mercalli 2, After Effects has one in "Tools", so does imovie and Sony Vegas Pro V10 has one built-in as well. I use Mercalli Pro2, but only to rescue footage that would be otherwise unusable or to just take the edge off shaky footage that has no apparent jello.

Prevention is better than cure.
