Bandoproof 2 FPV drone mount
DJI Action 2 🚀
Please read this description and the printer info below carefully. If you have any questions please me on my Instagram *@yannik.fpv** or send me an email: [email protected]*
❗️ Even if the mount is called "Bandoproof" and is designed as thoughtfully as possible, it does not protect the cam from every external influence. Too hard crashes and tolerances on the part of GoPro can still lead to a defective cam - nevertheless I think we have the best FPV drone mount.
Compatibility: The mount is designed for the DJI Action 2.
The Fixmount is designed for the Apex (5-7inch) from ImpulseRC.
🗃 The includes:
The mount in the angles 20/25/30/35°
😱 This mount goes beyond anything ever done for an action cam! The list of features is long, so here are the key highlights:
- 4x Air-filled Bumpers that absorb impacts from all directions, providing superior protection.
- Sideplates (available for separate ) that reinforce the mount like a protective shield.
- Airbag at the back of the mount that protects both your LiPo (for FPV drones) and the camera's screen.
- Screen Saver – an air layer between the mount and the screen reduces the chance of anything pressing directly against the display.
- Air Channels for ive Cooling allow airflow through the mount, cooling the camera on hot days and protecting it from overheating during 4K/120fps recordings. While overheating can still occur, this cooling system offers a unique, never-before-seen USP for the camera.
- Vertical Mounting Option enables you to easily install the DJI Action2 battery pack, allowing for charging without having to remove the camera. ...
💥 Additional Side Protector:The mount follows a completely new concept: It consists of the main mount (which you see here) and is designed to offer maximum protection while remaining as comfortable and easy to use as possible. It’s the perfect combination of practicality and efficiency.
Additionally, the SideProtectors are available for separate purchase. These provide the primary benefit of further stiffening the mount, turning it into an unprecedented shield of protection for your action cam. The sideplates come with even more features—learn more about them here.
😎 ND-Filter:
I recommend the use of TBS-ND filters with this mount. The mount is also compatible with the CameraButter BlackDiamond filters. If Screw-On ND filters are used (which replace the actual lens cover), they must not be larger (32mm x 32mm). I highly recommend the use of slide-in ND filters as they provide additional protection for the cam and are significantly cheaper to purchase and replace.
⚙️ ed exposure settings:
The mount can of course be flown with all camera settings. Under certain conditions, the mount can be seen in the corners:
No ND + 4:3 + Super Wide + Rocksteady:off -> slightly visible
No ND + 4:3 + Wide + Hypersmooth:off -> slightly visible
->As long as you are using ANY ND the mount shouldn't be in view at all.
To conclude: Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your . I really put a lot of heart, soul & time into these projects. I'm always open to and suggestions: Just write me a DM on Instragm. If you are as enthusiastic as I am: Post a story, post or reel and tag me. ❤️
3D printing settings
The mount is printed from TPU. Please do not (!) try to use any other material. 🖨
The exact settings for TPU depend on your printer and FIlament. Below I list some tips that I ask you to follow. Otherwise pay attention to the orientation of the STL in the printer - this is very important for the best quality of the mount.
Print Settings:
- Layer Height: 0.2mm
- Walls: 3
- Infill: 10-50% (You can adjust depending on the stiffness of your TPU and whether you prefer the mount to be softer or lighter)
- : Yes. I had the best experience with tree s for this mount. See the illustration above for reference.
Print temperature: in the best case you print TPU very hot and ensure good cooling. On the P1P from Bambulabs I print the TPU between 240-250°. The temperature is very important: +/-5° can make a big difference - test beforehand what is the best setting for you. Check video for refference.
💦Wet TPU: TPU is very susceptible to absorbing moisture. Unfortunately. It is therefore very important to dry TPU well. Often it does not come completely dry from the manufacturer. So also dry fresh TPU directly. I recommend a filament dryer from e.g. Sunlu. If you don't have one, you can also use your oven to dry the filament at 50° & circulating air for 4-8 hours. Drying (but I highly recommend a dryer, they are really worth every penny). (See video for refference.)[https://www.instagram.com/p/C0lnslDI_F0/]
TPU Brand: You can use any 95A rated TPU. But TPU from different manufacturers always varies in stiffness. I highly recommend the TPU from 3DJake, it is comparatively stiff and has a matt finish. Other TPU, such as from SainSmart, is also very good and easy to print but is much softer and shinier/smoother which is unfavorable for FlexAngle and Flexmount.
Please use a hard TPU for printing the FlexMount. Softer TPU makes the mounting system very susceptible to crashes.
: Since it is very important for the model to use , it should also be easy to remove. So test out what the best settings are for you.
