My friend has been building his own gyro cam just for fun (retired computer programmers do the strangest things), and it is coming along pretty good. The other day he followed me through Deals Gap on a spirited (not blistering) pass:
That's awesome! He have any info online somewhere about how he's building it? As I non-retired computer programmer, this is something I'd love to screw aorund with.
Fallis, There are a couple of videos that show up at the end..."gyrocam test" and "MEMS gyrocam closeup" that show the mid prototype (the early one was HUUUGE). But I don't know if he has put anything out describing the gyro board and servos.

Thank you for finally realizing what the rest of us already knew.

The gyro audio is pretty terrible though.
Not sure about OP's friend, but here is a discussion I've stumbled on
