DJI Phantom 3 Standard filter holder

thingiverse

I ordered the wrong filters, meant for Phantom 3 Pro/Adv, and returning them would cost almost as much as I paid initially, so I decided to create my own adapter instead. Filters were sourced from PhantomFilters.com. The first version (V1.0) involved placing the filter in a cup and then putting the cup on the camera, but the flexible filter kept falling out; this led me to explore alternative approaches. I revised the design for V2.0, applying the concept of double-layer placeholders. I printed it using an old FDM printer that had been collecting dust for a while. For the final version (V3.0), I incorporated reinforcement ribs over fingers to provide added support. The printing was done on a shiny new SLS machine. UPDATE: By May 9, 2016, my custom adapter worked perfectly; the filter remained securely in place without affecting the flight performance or camera view.
