GoPro Max 360 Anti tilt pole mount

thingiverse

Anti tilt GoPro Max 360 pole mount for action sports. I have used it for a backpack mount but can be used for Unicorn mount or any other mount where you don't want the GoPro tilting during action as any tilt allows the pole to be visible. This mount is designed to fit 8mmx8mm carbon tube you can buy at the hobby shop. It uses the standard GoPro knob and nut. There is a small hole to allow for a safety leash to be run inside the tube. I printed in PETG in horizontal position for strength (see photo on print bed). Printed with 100% infill and so far has survived many heavy duty windsurf sessions with lots of crashes. I put some small supports under the bottom of the round curves but you can probably get away without supports. Note the circular recess to fit the standard GoPro knob gets slightly distorted when printing in this horizontal position so a little bit of work with a craft knife is required to get the knob to fit. Once the carbon rod is inserted I drilled a hole for a 3mm stainless bolt but it is tight fit so may not be needed (or glue). To fit the leash it is easier to feed the string from the Gopro side before the rod is inserted. (I used Diabolo string as the leash which is high quality and extremely strong)
