Weighted GoPro 8 Dummy

thingiverse

**tl;dr** **Inner Cylinders**: 6 x 19.5 (diameter) x 9.5mm (height) **Weight**: 6 stacks of 6 pennies _Program a layer change just before the inner cylinders are to be closed - drop in the pennies._ --- The GoPro 8 is quite heavy! Adjusting flights for my quads doesn't always go as planned and I definitely don't need any of the video from them. Additionally, I wanted to push range a bit further and hoped to get an idea of current draw/endurance with a fully loaded and balanced quad. I put together this model with holes on the inside for pennies to get approximately the correct weight to act as a placeholder while I test things so I don't have to worry about losing/breaking an expensive GoPro in addition to an expensive quadcopter. The inner holes are six 19.5 (diameter) x 9.5mm (height) cylinders, which is enough for 6 US pennies stacked with a little extra wiggle room - so when you're done with the dummy, you'll have a very quiet maraca. With Prusa Slicer I just program a color change just before the cylinders are closed - drop the pennies in and get it going again.
