what bracket is that you use, we don't get that with the camera's in the UK? in fact i've never even seen it before

you could do the same with any pole really.

PVC or ABS piping works too. Just JB weld the bracket into the pole

x2 on what bracket that is? Dont recognize it.

It came inside the gopro hero3 white edition standard box, bought in US.

Nice idea. Is there a way you can build a self balancing fitting for gopro on a boom stick with small counter weights on top to keep the camera facing horizontal always? I am working on some designs on paper... Will be glad to share others' successes, too
Thanks

Actually you can keep the cam facing horizontal adjusting through the gopro screw.

Awesome diy!

Now I need to locate a similar braket to mount the go pro on.
