Default GWS Tiger Moth (camera on board)

Has anyone tried flying a still camera on a GWS Tiger Moth?
Making some changes like added a Park 370 Outrunner brushless motor powered with an 11.1 v Lipo battery. I also had to strengthened up the wing to keep it from collapsing. That's as far as I got so far. The Tiger flies extremely well with half throttle now. I can get her up high in no time. It's fast and loops and loops with ease. She has so much more power to spear but will she carry the weight of a small camera 3 oz. with batteries, including the servo and rubber band's to hold the camera in place. The plane's weight is 12 OZ. without the camera and 15 OZ total Weight with the camera. My question is Will this plane fly with extra weight on bard?
Thanks !
