There _may_ be a bug in the plugin (at least when run in preview).
In c3runtime/instance.js:
This line might be overloading C3's use of 'self' at the top level (at least in preview.)
After commenting out that line and disabling worker mode, the plugin no longer does a black screen (also a suggestion, if you see a black screen open up the browser developer console and check for errors, this is how I debugged and found the worker mode issue and the 'self' issue.)
Also note that my experience is Corodova based plugins are not functional in C3 preview (since the cordova plugin may not be loaded in a preview environment.) They are functional when built for the target mobile platform (e.g. iOS or Android.)
I would contact the original plugin author to see if they can help based on this info.
