Can this device hold any additional weight? say if I were to put a go pro on it?

I do not know. However I think it is a great idea. I will have to try it and let you know.

The Sky Viper can hold additional weight and while there is not a mount to hold a camera and if you don't want to fabricate a mount you can use something like velcro to secure the camera in place, which is what I did on my personal Sky Viper. While the Sky viper is capable of holding extra weight there is a tradeoff. The added weight will affect flight performance as well as the batteries flight time.

I honestly don't know how much a go pro weighs...it has alot of power so I'm thinking maybe but you probably won't get alot of height

Small items yes but any weight adjustment causes stability challenges. Definitely wouldn't be able to handle a go pro. Looks like you need a drone. :)

With a gopro tripod mount, you can convert any tripod (1/4 20) shank to accept a gopro. BUT, depending on your application, if your planning on using the gopro in any type of "extreme" condition, even as much as driving a car on a moderately bumpy road, AVOID THIS MOUNT!!!!! I have a Fat Gecko and its a paper weight. The main suction cup mount is too weak to handle anything more than mounting it on a window of a house. I would recommend the RAM system to which I found to be very solid, even outside the vehicle at speeds up to 70 and a camera not near as aerodynamic as a gopro.

No It cannot. It might can hold when it is in shortest mode but when you extend it to the full length it is a little hard to hold even with a go pro. I think it is just good for smaller gun and shoot cameras.

I have no idea how heavy a goPro is so I have no idea. I use this with a Olympus Stylus 1030SW that I just weighed at 6.75 ounces. I have used it in pools, rivers, lakes and oceans without issue since 2009. It's never failed to bob on the surface with the camera suspended below.

I would no try it. This is a foam glider. Go pro would weight more than the plane.

You can and are perfectly free to mount a GoPro on this quadcopter, HOWEVER, it will not fly with such a load.If you take off the plastic shell, the upper max limit of what it can carry is about 50 grams. I really do mean max too, it's able to get in the air and stay there with that much weight, but just to hover you're running 90-95% throttle.

I used the manfroto to hold a canon rebel camera. Not sure the weight but you can find out,

NO! It will not bear the weight of that. The plastic leg locks will break and collapse, already tried it, don't risk an expensive camera on a cheap one-use tripod like this.

Well, yes and no. When you think of a camera on a tripod standing up on three legs, yes it is too heavy. It will sink down. However, if your purpose is to stabilize the camera or wrap the tripod legs onto a bar or other object you couldn't just sit the camera on, then the gorillapod would work great. I have used my gorillapod for a small Kodak Zi8 (similar to a flip camera) and it supports that just fine, but larger cameras do cause the tripod to sag a bit. This hasn't stopped me from using it much, though! I use it all the time. It stabilizes the camera wonderfully with the flexibility of its legs. And the magnetic feet have helped me stabilize it on railings and other odd places.

While I don't believe it would readily hold the weight of a person, I have a photo copy stand and lights on mine and it works just dandy.

I use it for a gopro hero3, I wouldn't recommend anything much heavier than that.

I weigh 165 and I just use it as an aide with another floating device close at hand. I don't think it would just flat out hold up my weight.

If you're talking about weight, then I have no doubt this tripod will hold any sort of camera up in its regular tripod stance.Will it hold it the weight of the camera while strapped vertically/horizontally? I can't say for sure, I use this tripod on conjunction with my iPhone and Quadlock system and it doesn't wiggle at all. I say for the money, its worth the gamble to test it out to see if it exceeds your needs.

Max weight? I'm not sure but it is strong. It shoukd hold yours easily. I use a cannon camcorder and its no problem. Tighen the 3 legs on bottom real tight and it should hold almost any camera.

You will probably need to purchase a mount that can hold a heavier load, especially if you're going to do any type of photography. I believe the capacity of this mount is 35lbs.
