TBS Caipirinha Yi Action Cam Mount

thingiverse

I'm too nervous to attach my GoPro 3+ to my TBS Caipirinha, so I designed this mount for the Xiaomi Yi Action Camera instead. The mount is inspired by Boonzie's design for the Hero2 camera. Wrap a rubber band around the camera to secure it snugly in place and prevent any wobbling or jello effect, then use a velcro strap to hold it firmly inside its case, so it doesn't come loose mid-flight. A large lens cutout is built into the mount, allowing you to attach filters like the TBS anti-jello filter directly onto your camera. The design comes in two versions: standard and pocket. The standard version features a sleek, recessed setup, similar to the Hero3 mount offered by TBS. For the more extreme flyers out there, I've included a pocket behind the standard version's camera housing - perfect for adding additional weight if needed. When this configuration is used, your camera will be slightly positioned closer to the front of your wing, allowing for an easier line of sight and greater balance overall. Simply print both versions with 60% or higher infill and add supports to hold them securely in place.
