Back when I owned LEGO Technic set 9398 I designed and built a camera mount for the roof, this allowed me to video this driving around, it was suitable for the task but didn't look very good (a mix of colours) and needed modifications to the roof of 9398 to support it.

Recently I decided to try and design / build a camera mount which was more universal and could be used with different sets, the basis for this was the Volvo wheel loader (42030) but with a view to using it on other sets in the future.

Last night I spent an hour watching the cricket on TV and building this. I am much happier with this version as it is mostly a standard colour (Black), can be easily installed and removed as the grey legs fit in the roof space and beside the cabin of 42030 to support it and finally it holds the camera at a good angle. Below are some photos and a video of this in use.
