print the parts on the side ( rotate 90°) to get the best durability and performance...TPU is perfect but i tried PETG and it works just fine till you destroy something of the PETG by crashing.
don't use oil to fiddle the silicone tubing into the 3dprinted parts - tha will slip out as easy as you are able to squeeze it in the holes ! Use pure water, compressed air or twisting motions . ( tutorial is comming soon )
For Alien style drones, use the Soldering Iron to melt holes were you need it, your topplate can act as a stencil. It also works upside down for follow footage - just use bigger
zip ties and the ""flip gyo data" option in the RSgo settings.
you should start with 135-145 mm of silicone tubing in the front and about 180 -190 mm in the back. Sometimes you need to cut it down about 5-10 mm in the front, depending on the type fo silicone tubing you choosed - you should have a nice round shape, if your tube gets flat - your bend is maybe too tight . (THX ninjarixx for asking that quaestion in the comments !)
Quicktipp:
Before you start, give your running gopro a 360 spin by hand and use that as 1st sync point in RSgo ( the software should pick that by itself in most cases )

Shoot me a mail if yu have questions or need help. I want everybody to be able to play with ReelsteadyGo and want to see more creative use of it !
Im sad o say that some setups never will be able to record footage with a hero7 for ReelsteadyGo...try low pitched props like the Ethix S-line - and keep in mind that propwash is a real problem for the Hero 7. fingers crossed that the next gopro takes no shortcuts with its gyro use ;-).
