I'm interested shooting a video segment from a J3 Cub. I
need a vertical shot and one looking forward and down
over a designated course. In order to have a stable
platform I'm considering fabricating a box slung below
the aircraft.

Question: Is this doable? Can the vibration be dampened
enough for a stable shot, particularly the vertical shot at
near maximum zoom. Is there software available which
can help stabilize vibration induced picture jitter?

Is there a better approach to this problem or an equipment
source or DYI plans for this specialized application?
Budgeting less than $300 for equipment or materials used
in fabricating camera mounting.
