Beta85X HD Canopy with adjustable camera angle

thingiverse

From the very beginning I was unhappy with the high camera angle of my Beta 85X HD, which prevented me from slowly flying, e.g. indoors. @ahpaa has done already a good job with designing a canopy which puts the camera more to the front and makes room to allow adjusting the angle in a quite wide range. However, he didn't finish his design and when trying to use it, I run into several problems. - The two horns for protecting the camera come into the view for low camera angles - The frame material is too weak for supporting a third screw hole at the front side So I have modified his design by cutting the horns, further closing the top side as there is no need for the front screw and by adding a front hook for frame fixation instead of a front screw. Actually the lowest camera angle is limited by the ducts coming into view. If I would have the source of the design, I would place the camera even more to the front to get rid of this problem. But at least for most cases the camera angle is already low enough as is. And there is a further nice benefit with this canopy, you can add a Caddx ND filter now.
