I think its great we have a DIY option for making our own lens hood. We can even buy one now on ebay with the SAME design. There are also a few others like Taco-RC that will have the SAME design available soon. I'm just wondering if anyone else is interested in a different design. One that would still attach the same way as the dome, but would flare out a little more to resemble the shape of a regular lens hood. I understand you can't have much on the bottom for when the gimble points down. I'm talking about mostly on the right and left sides. The current offering does a good job of blocking light when the sun is on the right side of the Mavic, but there is less material on the left side that doesn't block as much light when the sun is on the left side of the Mavic.
I don't have a 3d printer. I'm not certain it's possible, but it seems to me that the design could deviate somewhat from the dome shape and provide better coverage.
