This is a camera mount for Diatone Grasshopper 160mm frame. (https://www.banggood.com/Diatone-Grasshopper-160-G160-Carbon-Fiber-Quadcopter-Frame-Kit-w-BEC-Power-Distribution-Board-p-995924.html) I wanted to mount my new Foxeer Predator Mini Camera (22mm wide) but the Grasshopper frame doesn't have enough clearance for the lens. I originally created a canopy for the frame (See https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2748912 ). But I wanted to be able to use the stock top plate so that I can mount my battery on top. I also wanted to move the camera forward so that props won't be visible in FPV feed as well as in Runcan Split HD video. The result is this camera mount that you can install using front standoffs. (I use 5mm x 35mm standoffs). Design objectives - Able to mount 22mm wide cameras (Foxeer Predator, Runcam Split, etc) - Move the location of the camera forward so that propellers won't be in view when using 4-inch propellers. - Able to adjust the tilt angle of the camera. - Have sufficient rigidity to protect the camera even in a frontal impact. You can print without any support. I use Saint Smart TPU at 45% infill, 0.30mm layer height.
