QAV250 GoPro Mount

thingiverse

I created an easy solution to attach my GoPro to my QAV250 and adjust its angle so it's not staring at the ground. This mount fits snugly onto the top plate, offering a secure fit - although I'm open to making adjustments if needed. Take a close look, and you'll spot a small angled design flaw in the back, a minor misstep due to my lack of experience with designing, but it poses no problem whatsoever. What's more, this mount holds up incredibly well when printed on pla - a fair amount of force is required to make it snap. The lower indentation serves as a place for attaching a velcro strap, and the other "attachment point" behind the GoPro accommodates my lens protector strap. I invite you to test-print this design, providing me with your results if you choose to do so. Given that it works seamlessly on mine, I'll gladly make any necessary dimensional adjustments if others experience any fit issues. Print this model on a Printrbot Simple Metal at 217 degrees Celsius using a .3 mm first layer and subsequent layers at .15 mm thickness, and be sure to use a 15% infill and two perimeter prints for maximum strength. When printing, do not stand the model upright; print it flat as is. The directional orientation of the layers contributes significantly to its exceptional stability. To prevent slippage from occurring on the top plate, apply four squares of 3M VHB tape around the mount, ensuring a secure fit that won't shift. This detail can be observed in one of the provided photos.
