The weight is not the issue here. The issue is that a GoPro has a very wide angle lens and you will have a hard time seeing what you are filming. You could try filming in 4k and then try to zoom-in in post production. Or you could change the lens on the GoPro to a more tele like lens. Probably 6 mm or so.

I just ordered some from here, 30x30mm and 40x40mm. Will probably 3d print something to try them out.

October 25, 2018 at 3:04 pm LinkHi Toku58. Good stuff! I had told my friends last year that i wanted to use my anglesight like this. I actually have a custom lens in my gopro that would allow me to use it in this application. In your post, you mentioned that the hardest part was sanding the tube or bushing. Which piece are you referring to and are you referring to the inner diameter or outter of that piece?

Are you still able to look the scope naturally and able to focus the scope?
Yes! I can shoot normally. The thing I like about it is that you can zoom in on the shot. Even with the lens mod on the GoPro you can't zoom.
It a really cool mount.kzz1kaw
