whoa.. That was awesome, if the image could some how be a bit more stable may be easier on the eyes.Very nice work though.

Anyone try this design yet? Was waiting to win a hero 2/3 to try it..

The fin behind the camera with the right angles should keep it from turning.. the balloon would drag so need more of a cone shape than a sphere, and the balloon would need to keep the weight of the camera to nill..

The initial resistance to move for the balloon and camera could be negated some by launching them as well. Just trying to not have the flight of the disc modified..
of course the best would be having a track set up...

Do you know what Rube Goldberg is famous for?
It won't work. Air resistance is constant, as far as a balloon is concerned. 20 feet distance, tops.
