    Using an ATV winch as a hoist?

    I would not recommend it, we had 3 rigged to lift a truss and a few hundred pounds of equipment one wire snapped which then caused the other 2 to fail. Get a legit chain motor.

    storage tote labeling

    Fabricating things from conduit

    Might want to try and get a little gyro stabilized gimbal and mount that on the helicopter. I've done gopros on helicopters quite a few times. My best success was to use a sticky mount on the nose and use the little white bushing thing gopro supplies. That or do time lapse.
