I would have to say electric as well. And make sure you have a very well balanced propeller. Vibration not only makes for not-so-great video, it might even be detrimental to he camera gear.

Burn the fossils man! you can never go wrong... I voted 4s
Just spend the extra time to isolate the vibration, this is why people go electric. They either don't have the patience to figure it out, or don't have the time.

here is a link to my onboard video.
it has a saito 220 4 stroke on 30%.
at wot there is so much vibration it makes it hard to see anything.
wether its stills or video vibration destroys the image quality.
