Tiny Whoop Transmitter Monitor Mount by aolshove

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This is a wrap-around FPV monitor mount for the factory MLP4DMS transmitter for use with Tiny Whoop type of R/C toy.
My FPV monitor is the Andoer FPV RX-LCD5802 but I think that mounts for these kinds of monitors are pretty much all the same. For this project, I stole the Boscam Monitor rx-lcd 5802 Mount from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1343763 and modified it slightly to angle the back spine to allow more room for the MLP4DMS antenna. The monitor mount just slides into the slot on the back of the FPV monitor and the transmitter portion inserts over the antenna and then snaps around the bottom of the transmitter (see picture(s)).
The part that goes onto the transmitter was 3D scanned from my MLP4DMS and modeled in Meshmixer, Autodesk Fusion 360, and Microsoft 3D Builder and tabs for the monitor mount were affixed.
The monitor mount and the transmitter mount mate up using a 5mm x 50mm bolt.
The transmitter mount is best printed antenna-hole-down and with full supports. I didn't need a raft.
