Antenna guard protection cover for FPV camera Eachine TX01 TX02 TX03 installed in JJRC H8 Mini or Floureon H101 mini drones by SxSierra

This thing is a little remix based on the design "whoop camera mount for eachine TX01" http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1815820 by "sepela" (Oct 9, 2016).
I have created two versions of his antenna guard with less thickness. The first one with 1.6 mm and the second one with 1.2 mm. It was a must to reduce the thickness and the total weight since I needed to insert this guard over the upper body shell of two similar mini drones (Eachine/JJRC H8 mini and Floureon H101) with the idea to protect the antenna of the Eachine TX01 camera that I had installed for fpv (first person view).
The thick of original guard designed by "sepela" is 2.41 mm. I have decided to include his original design with my bundle for ease.
Although I have created these guards for the Eachine TX01 fpv camera, they will fit surely with other similar little cameras or mini drones when you require to insert the guards over the upper body shells of them (not using base mounts for the camera).
I have included two pictures of my modded mini drones where you can appreciate the final result of inserting the new antenna guards. Finally I chose the 1.6 mm version for the Eachine H8 mini (white) and Floureon H101 (red) because it is more robust. As you can see the two terminals of the guard were approched for the insertion within the borders of the upper body shells.
For this kind of modding I recommend using hot-melt adhesive to fix the guards well. Be careful about where you insert the guards to avoid they are touched by the drone blades.
