I can't be the only one who has had some trouble coming up with a good way to mount an FPV camera on their quad. So I designed a simple snap together mount that I would like to share! This thing presses together and glues to your frame with some hot glue. It weighs 5 grams. I designed it with universal (should be anyways) slots for mounting screws. Just lift the camera off the board a bit with spacers and screw it on with servo mount screws. Below is the CAD file. I am glad to share with anyone who has the ability to make this themselves. If you don't, but want one: go to my site openrcdesign.com (still a work in progress), click on FPV CAM Mount and buy one for $15. Ill have a post about the frame its mounted on in a few days. The APM mount is of particular interest.

Yes. The lego parts could be used to Pan/Tilt, among other applications. Legos are pretty cool.
Thanks for the complement Sgt. Ric!
Acorn: Do you mean like a pan tilt? Maybe my next design will incorporate that, would be cool.
I haven't started playing around with FPV but I have some ideas with what to do with some of my childrens legos parts that are hinged. You tend to come up with these ideas when you have small children.
Nice clean design...good job.
