Seeing Syavick's gimbal adapter for the Insta360 Evo camera inspired me to buy a Feiyu WG2X gimbal and try it out. I printed it and it was really cool, but I ran into two issues:When I screwed the bottom piece onto the side piece, I didn't line it up quite right so it ended up not quite perpendicular (~92 degrees).The Insta360 Evo camera could rotate a little around the tripod screw, so it wasn't always pointing directly ahead.So to fix these issues. I decided to make a new version that made the adapter a single piece and would hold the camera more securely.AlexNZ had already made a perfectly good Insta360 EVO tripod mount, so why not use that?I took Syavick's connector piece and AlexNZ's camera mount and just slapped them together into a single model. I made a couple of other minor changes (thinning the mount bottom and end wall, filling in the screw holes), and it turned out great.Check out https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4566260 and see how he set the original adapter up. In addition to the large nut/bolt he used to balance the gimbal, I also used some of these weights: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B085LCFFZSTo balance mine, I put four weights on the back of the printed adapter, towards the gimbal pivot. I also put four weights on the gimbal arm, on the opposite side from the tightening ring. I also put one weight next to the nut/bolt counterbalance. This seems to balance things out for me, but you might find a better arrangement. I haven't actually tried filming with this yet - I'm setting up a chest mount that I just printed so I can use this hands free. I set mine up in Cura with 1.2mm thick walls, 20% infill, and tree support on (needed for the indentation where it connects to the gimbal). I printed it with the orientation it would normally be used in (long flat part on the bottom).
