Camera Mount RC Plane

thingiverse

There are 2 possible approaches to attach an FPV camera to your plane which are tail mount or front mount. The pros and cons of the 2 mounting approaches will help you decide which you prefer. Tail Mount The tail mounted camera gives you a better view of you plans wings, removes the propeller for view (assuming the propeller is in the noise). The center of gravity of your plane changes with the added weight of the camera on the tail of the plane. If you choose the tail mounted camera you will need to move the battery forward or add weight to the nose to offset the weight of the camera. A tail mounted camera wiring run will be longer. Nose Mount Gives you the perspective of viewing the world as if you are sitting in the cockpit. Mounting the camera closer to the front of the plane has a much lower effect on center of gravity. Typically an easier wiring install. The width of the camera you select is important. The front camera mount & tail camera mount fits the RunCam Micro Swift camera or any camera with a width of 19mm.
