One of the keys to getting rid of vibration is making the object being mounted as light as possible. With our GoPros, we have manufactured our own mounts that are much lighter and stiffer than the vendor supplied mounts. We also run ours without the battery installed. The battery is a huge percentage of the weight of the camera. Without the battery you'll have to power the camera through the high-density connector.
