Pistol grip camera for the Raspberry Pi HQ camera module

thingiverse

Building a Raspberry Pi HQ camera module into a pistol grip chassis is quite an undertaking, especially when it's done as a learning exercise for OpenSCAD. The result is far from perfect, so it's really a work in progress that will see some improvements over time. Update 2020-07-01: Locating foot and shoe tolerances have been improved. Update 2020-07-07: The strength of the locating shoe on handle has also been improved. You'll need four M2.3x8mm self-tapping screws to fit the camera module into place. The sloping top is designed to mount a Raspberry Pi in a case using Velcro strips, and I'm currently using a cheap touchscreen for the interface. The handle can take a battery, its design allowing it to fit two 18650s in holders but I use a single 18650 booster pack.
