DJI Osmo Action flexible holster/case with coldshoe mount

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

Designed and build this simple but very flexible Rig for the DJI Osmo Action by the time the action camera came out. I used it for a while now, with every possible setup and gear, and I was always happy to have it! There is nothing like that out there, so I'm very proud I made this one! Your camera just slides sideways inside and stays there securely even on heavy shaking. It's also perfect for vlogging on a selfie-stick.
The cold shoe allows you to mount anything you want. You can mount gear, like external mics e.g. Rode Wireless Go, or other extension plates for more space and gear. The case can handle some extra weight - trust me.
I tried to print this in PLA first but there was just too much tension and after a while it broke eventually. Also shock absorption of PLA is not very good in my observation. Sometimes a tiny quake breaks the PLA print already. (Maybe less infill could have helped it but I never tried that.) - Finally printed this holster in carbon fiber nylon filament from SaintSmart and it came out gorgeous! It is very lightweight and very flexible while being brutally rigid at the same time! Printed with supports and 100% infill.
