DJI GPS Holder/Protector

thingiverse

I designed this holder to shield my DJI GPS, and I recently discovered that someone on eBay is selling 3D-printed GPS shields like crazy and thought there might be some demand out there. Update: I just remembered that I have two versions of the stand: one that utilizes a standard 6-32 nut and bolt (the type you'd find at Home Depot) and another that uses an M3 (3mm) nut and bolt. Although the bolts are quite similar in size, the 6-32 nuts tend to be significantly larger. I originally posted the 6-32 stand, and if you've printed this one, you can still use it, but you'll need a 6-32 nut and bolt instead of an M3 nut and bolt. Instructions: Most other GPS holders I have seen employ a wood or sheet metal screw to join the holder parts together and to attach the holder to the airframe. To me, that seems rather insecure. So, with this one, I print the stand in three parts, and each end features a spot for an actual metal nut. Then, I glue the parts together using ABS dissolved in acetone (my homemade glue—and if you haven't tried it, you should!). You can also simply use model glue or ABS pipe glue from Home Depot. There are two versions of the stand: one that supports a standard 6-32 nut and bolt, and another that supports an M3 nut and bolt. The files are named appropriately to help you identify which is which.
