ImmersionRC PowerPLAY DVR holder for wide goggle strap

thingiverse

I took on a challenge to create a holder for the ImmersionRC PowerPLAY DVR, but I ended up building a fully functional replacement holder that looks almost identical. The new holder features three different back plates designed to fit three different widths of FPV goggle straps: 25mm for 1 inch width straps, 38mm for 1.5 inch width straps, and 50mm for 2 inch width straps. If you need a custom width groove for your goggle strap, simply drop a note in the comments - it only takes a few seconds to adjust the width in the 3D editor. The front plate prints flat with support turned on for the tabs that clip into the DVR, taking about 50 minutes on my Prusa i3 Mk3 in PLA at 0.2mm layer height. The back plate needs to be printed vertically without support, requiring a print time of 2.5 hours using the same PLA material and layer height. To assemble the holder, you'll need four M2x6 bolts to attach the two pieces together, as well as some foam strips for the back curve. The PowerPLAY DVR should come with two spare foam strips. If you want to design your own back plate to bolt onto the front plate, make sure to create 1.9mm diameter bolt holes at distances of 74.6mm horizontal and 42.2mm vertical from their centers. I printed my holder in PLA, which provides just enough flexibility to bend the tab back for inserting or removing the DVR. However, PETG might be a better option due to its reduced brittleness and increased flexibility.
