### Sleeve-Style GoPro Session Mounts for Apex, iFlight, Screech - 30° Camera Angle. - Use 20mm Standoffs for "sleeve". - Use 8mm M3 screws. - Recommend nylon washers for mounting "plate" to frame. ### Versions - "Normal" is about 2mm thick around GoPro - "Thicker" is about 3mm thick around GoPro - ImpulseRC Apex - Tested on 6" Clone. - ImpulseRC Apex - with added bracing. - ImpulseRC Apex - FlatPrint version(s). - iFlight XL Series - Tested on XL7 v3. - Strix Screech Freestyle - not yet tested, but old/derivative versions worked. ### Why - Mount needed more material (meat) in the standoff loops to avoid breakage. ### Observations - Sleeve will not eject GoPro - FlatPrint version is the best and stiffest, so far -- will not rip mount at adhesion layers like vertical-prints. (Caveat, may still rip at screw-holes) - It is a bit difficult to remove GoPro from sleeve. Removing GoPro usually triggers rear button even though not directly pressed due to amount of pressure needed to push on GoPro. - The original sleeve designer reported that the mount is not in-view even in superview; however, i do see a small amount. My Gopro is a refurb model, fwiw. ### Printing - GoPro Sleeve needs supports -- about 25° to 30° or as desired - Print components with 100% solid layers or 100% infill to your preference. ### Photo - Left is slightly under-extruded Apex with minor print fail at top-most. - Middle is iFlight XL and "normal" sleeve - Right is "Thick" sleeve - SuperView visibility; YMMV - Apex - Thicker sleeve and FlatPrint version of the plate-mount. --- ### A little show of appreciation goes a long way. - If you enjoy this, please "Like" or comment. - Please post "Makes". - Feel free to promote it using the [attribution card](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5177455/attribution_card). - Please consider subscribing to my [Youtube](http://youtube.com/c/nerdCopter). - All my works under the `Creative Commons - Attribution - Non-Commercial - Share Alike` license unless otherwise noted. - Free to print for yourself or your friends.
