Gopro mount for Vivitar 360 sky eye drone

thingiverse

I'm sick of this terrible quality video and fish-eye distortion from the stock camera, so I took matters into my own hands. To give it a major boost, I decided to upgrade with a GoPro mount that attaches seamlessly to the existing shock mounts on the drone's camera mount. The trick is to carefully remove the shock mounts from their original position by pinching them down and popping them out of the holes. From there, simply pinch them back in to securely insert them into this custom-printed plate. Make sure to pay close attention to the orientation of the mount plate - that wide gap is at the front. I did notice a significant drawback, however: the added weight of the GoPro reduced flight time from 10 minutes to about 2 minutes, but despite some struggles, the drone remains stable enough for great photography over its shorter flights.
