Default Raptor 50 Pay load and how to increase It?

Hi, I currently own a Raptor 50 V2 in stock configuration(with OS 50H), and I would like to mount a camera on it, I know I will use a camera mount(http://www.airfoilhelicam.com) and a Sony DSC-V1 camera, but I do not know if the Raptor has the muscle to do it? Should I upgrade the stock Raptor 50? How can I increase payload in an helicopter? Should I buy a New Heli? Can a Raptor 50 use 800mm blades?

Thanks in advance

My 30 will lift a 8mm camcorder no problem. You can tell it's on there, but you can fly around and take video's.
