Nice mount for the Flip Ikelite case. I have one fabricated using a beefier aluminum bracket, and a Tin Man delrin clamp. It's too heavy though (on top of the heft of the case) so I'm in the process of making another one similar to yours.

Cool, I'd love to see pics of yours as well. This is definatly tough to lug around, but the end result should be worth it I hope. Love to know the pros and cons of yours. I think that I am goin to make a bigger wing kit in the front so that it isn't so front heavy or switch to a 9/32 shaft for less recoil and to make it less front heavy.

The case is positively buoyant by itself, so the challenge is getting the aluminum bracket light enough but still strong.
I made some custom length fasteners with plastic washers (to avoid contact, and thus corrosion between the stainless steel and aluminum). However, I probably will only use one of them so that the camera can be rotated for shots without the gun in frame (for example, when filming buddies underwater). To that end my original bracket included a thin piece of innner tube rubber for friction. But a thinner bracket will have less surface area to hold the camera steady...
All my videos so far with the camera have just been handheld.
