Dji Mavic 2 Pro/Zoom Camera Mount

thingiverse

I designed this camera mount for the Mavic 2 Pro/Zoom to support a 12x zoom camera on top of my drone and capture distant shots. I was dissatisfied with the existing mounts online, which clipped onto the drone due to my camera's weight and aerodynamic limitations, so I opted for a wrap-around design. The installation process takes a bit longer as you need to stretch it over the drone, but once in place, it provides excellent stability! Be sure not to obstruct the bottom sensor when installing (place it between the two). To prevent scratches on the drone's surface, I applied electrical tape around the areas that come into contact with each other. You can use virtually any 1/4 inch screw for installation; I used a tripod screw in my case. When flying, ensure there is no wind and make slow movements as the CG and weight of the drone will be significantly different. Use at your own risk! --- 2019/01/12 Update: Version 4.1 has been added, which includes a sturdy bracket under the drone to facilitate easier installation. --- 2019/01/13 Update: An alternative configuration picture has been added. When mounted upside down, you can attach a camera underneath the drone; however, be aware that it may interfere with drone instruments and take-off and landing might become more challenging. Additionally, due to the tight threads, this mount can be used on a tripod if the screw is long enough.
