DJI Phantom 3 Standard Gimbal Mount - Upgraded

thingiverse

After my Phantom 3 Standard crashed, I was surprised at how flimsy the original gimbal mount was and how hard it was to source a replacement. I drew this one up for others finding themselves in the same predicament. The holes and extrusions are mostly the same as the original, though a little simplier on the backside and a little thicker for added strength (~3/16"). How I Designed This After gluing the original back together, I scanned it with a ruler in the shot for size reference. I used the scan as a raster reference image in AutoCAD, where I drew it in 2D. From there, the DWG was loaded into Sketchup Pro 2014 to be rendered into 3D, then exported to SLT, and into to generate GCODE.
