Vidroc 808 Version 5 (V5) 

  • This is designed to allow you ‘strap on’ an 808 Key chain camera to your project.  Mind you these cameras are starting to be harder to find but they're still one of the better options out there for this purpose.  This one on Ebay is one of the better deals.
  • With this kit you can print the mount with bases that support 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 inch airframes.  You simply load the V5 mount then ‘add part’ (in the Prusa Slicer) with the base diameter you need and print as one object.
  • Included are the STEP and Fusion models if you need to tweak the mount base.
  • Though the camera snaps in firmly, it's advised to use a self tapping screw to further secure it.  I used an M2.3.
  • I've also included a cool replacement button for the camera that makes it a little easier to find then press the power / start button.  With most of the better 808 cameras, you can configure them to start recording on power up, so having this button easier to identify, makes that just a touch nicer. 

 

Nylon zip tie mounting is often preferred so you can use the mount on different airframes.

But if you would rather the mount had a more permanent attachment - there is a ‘no zip ties main body that offers a couple ways to affix it to your airframe with screws or glue (or both).

When printing, I stand it on the trailing end and use the paint on supports to support the inner edge of the camera mount.  But you don't have to. I even did a test where decreased the layer height just at the overhang and it worked pretty good as well. 

I set the base layer height to .20mm and perimeters to 3 most of the time, sometimes I do 100% infill though I've really not seen any greater strength with this design.

 

 

The Dual Camera “Bowtie” 

This configuration allows you to record the flight in both directions, for those times were you might want to review how the well recovery system deployment worked.

The mount can be attached flat, the included base is designed for a  5" diameter airframe.  I've included the STEP file if you need to modify the base for a different size.
