Which Ixus model do you have exactly? If you are willing to pull it apart you can attach a PicoSwitch to the shutter pin inside the camera case. I did this with a Coolpix (photo and description at the bottom of this page: https://sites.google.com/site/paparazziuav/maja).

Apropos. How do you like the Maja? How crash proof is it?
I like the modularity. But I still expect to total it a few times. When I look at my Bixler it's mote glue than foam.
Good question. I try to keep in one piece and so haven't managed to smack it into the ground yet ;) It is very modular and you should be able to repair it pretty easily. I have seen people having the nose portion break off but they either don't bother fixing it or patch it up by just gluing it back on (it's all EPO). 

I really like the wing and body fixing method with coroplast and plastic rods.

Amongst my too many flying projects I am half way through building the Skywalker X8 (http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/x8-flying-wing) which may end up being my plane of choice.
