DJI Mavic Mini Phone Holder

thingiverse

This is a remix of YohannG's DJI Mavic/Spark phone holder tailored specifically for the Mavic Mini transmitter. I wasn't happy about having to remove my phone from its Otterbox Symmetry case every time I wanted to connect it to the transmitter. While YohannG's original design worked, I made a few tweaks to better suit my setup. I added two small cutouts in the main bracket that positions it between the clips holding the transmitter sticks. This makes the mounting solution extremely solid when the arms are closed up. To address this issue, I increased the height of the phone mount on the main bracket since it was slightly too low for my phone/case combination, and added grips to the screw as I found it very difficult to remove my phone from the old setup once it was in place. That's about it, really. Thanks are due to YohannG for his work. Updated 03/01/2020 - A new version of the main mount/bracket has been uploaded. It's essentially the same as the previous one, just redone from scratch in Fusion 360 since the old one was getting cluttered with all the Tinkercad edits. This is mainly to make my life easier if I decide to make any further modifications. It still uses all the original parts, so it's totally compatible with the original screws. I've increased the length of the thread in the mount in an attempt to reduce the loose-fitting screw effect. I didn't want to increase the diameter of the screws as this could cause binding issues, but you can always upscale the screws slightly in your slicing software if required. There have been some questions about attaching sunshades to the mount. This was one of the initial reasons I added a flat face to the main mount clamp (the other being ease of printing), but due to the size of the transmitter I never found a sunshade that didn't get in the way of reaching the sticks. The flat face is there, so a simple sunshade could easily be attached to it with Velcro (for example) if you wish.
