what are the positives of a cart higher? 1) GIMBALL touches on grass., 2) TAKE OFF AND LANDING SAFE ALSO ON ROUGH TERRAIN 3) Increased stability in case of take-off in strong winds, because the cart as well as being higher is also wider and stable

So simple, and yet it looks like it would make it way more stable for landings. And yeah, those of us who use filters have the camera millimeters away from the gravel/grass/dust, whatever we're taking off from. l like this, good job.

Interesting, have you flown it with the extensions on and how did it perform?  Don't think it would fit in Hardshell Backpack.

before this I made several models, this is the most stable even in high winds, and 'very light and you can build a system to remove it and put it on each trip with zaino.Non've had no turnovers rear power.

Very cool.  My only concern would be how the flat faces of that clear plastic would catch a crosswind.

using a plexiglass more big, you can reduce the width for mounting on original

It's not metal so no. It will add to the "greased rock" aerodynamics of it though

doesn´t have to be metal for that. Try put your hand over the GPS antenna on top and see what happens.

I would like it better if it had sort of a flare at the bottom. As it is, the width stays almost exactly the same, but it gets higher off the ground.

I've been toying with ideas as well. I want something (if I can find it) that makes the base much, much wider than it already is. That would also help to keep the landing gear out of the viewfinder.

In the meantime, I bought one of those carbon fiber "straps" that attaches to the base with tie wraps. I'm hoping that's plenty of protection for the camera/gimbal.

Saw someone the other day post the same thing. Don't know about you, but I found it really, really difficult to fly my Phantom with my hand over the top of it!
