I am trying to determine the minimum necessary tube strength to hold a GoPro for our post-race video debriefs.
Stiff enough to minimize flexing under the weight of the GoPro and mount 6oz/170g while mounted to the center of a 72" long tube supported on both ends. Lighter is better, and cheaper is better. This will be used 20 times a year, and can be stored out of the sun if needed. I was looking at .75" to 1.0" OD tubes.

Hi there!
I am trying to determine the minimum necessary tube strength to hold a GoPro for our post-race video debriefs.
Stiff enough to minimize flexing under the weight of the GoPro and mount 6oz/170g while mounted to the center of a 72" long tube supported on both ends. Lighter is better, and cheaper is better. This will be used 20 times a year, and can be stored out of the sun if needed. I was looking at .75" to 1.0" OD tubes.
Thank you for any advice!
