ArduCam with GoPro Mounting and Flexible Arm by BrendanP52

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

I really liked the flexible arm that Micheal at Teaching Tech designed, it was the best camera arm that I found, but I wanted to use my ArduCam IR camera. I was able to find an ArduCam IR case with a STEP file and modified it to match the GoPro standard mount. I then used Micheal's generic camera mount STEP file to convert it to the GoPro standard to match the case. The links to the "things" are listed below:
Teaching Tech Arm:
-Files Used: 2020 base, link, mid-size locking ring
-Files Modified: Generic Camera Mount
-No supports needed for these parts as his video and page notes.

ArduCam IR Case:
-Files Used: Case_Front_Improved. There are several variations so you can choose your own
-Files Modified: Case_Back_Improved
-My case back has the GoPro mounting standard, NEEDS SUPPORTS

So to recreate the system I made, use the following;
-ArduCam Case Bottom w GoPro Mounting, QTY: 1
-Case_Front_Improved, QTY: 1
-Base, QTY: 1 from Teaching Tech or other remixes. I used the 2020 base
-Ball_Socket - GoPro Mount, QTY: 1
-Link, QTY: As many as you want. I used the mid-sized ring
-Locking Ring, QTY: As many as you want
-M3 x 15mm screws, QTY: 4. These hold together the front and back of the case..
