Runcam Split 2S Drone Mount

thingiverse

Hey there! I recently picked up a Runcam Split 2S and was blown away that no one had designed a proper housing to mount it on top of a standard freestyle quadcopter, so I decided to create a brand new design from scratch. This is my first time creating a 3D model, so this design might be far from perfect, but I'm eager to improve it as much as possible. Feedback and suggestions are more than welcome! The idea behind this model is to place the tiny camera on top of a drone and use it solely as a digital recording camera, just like a Runcam 3S or GoPro Session. I tried to create a compact design similar to the Split 2 models, but the main challenge here is that the camera cable isn't as flexible as the previous model. To solve this issue, the camera needs to be perpendicular to the board instead of placing the cable at a 180-degree angle. If not, the cable will become too bent and likely break. Printing with TPU or some kind of flexible material is highly recommended since the camera enters very tightly into the hole. If you're printing with PLA, you might want to scale down the model slightly. You'll need four M2.5 screws for this design, with nylon being the recommended choice. The best fit for these screws are those that are 12mm long. The weight of the camera plus the 3D printed design and screws comes in at around 35 grams - incredibly light!
