3D Printing Mavic Mini Stuff

[StubbornSwiss]

I've printed the parts for several people, and would be happy to do it for just the cost of parts and shipping (I'm in Philadelphia), but you'd be limited to the colors of filament (the plastic that the 3D printer uses) which I have on hand, which are currently black, red, and royal blue.

Hey Doug...... please check your messages.

Cheers!

Hi, unfortunately I do not own a 3D printer nor does anyone I know. That said does anyone have a link to a site where I might be able to purchase some of the accessories shown above. Thanks!

I designed a phone holder so that I can use my phone without taking it out of its Otterbox case.

DJI Mavic Mini Phone Holder by AlanMoulding

This is a remix of YohannG's DJI Mavic/Spark phone holder to better suit the Mavic Mini transmitter. I didn't like the fact that I had to take my phone out of it's Otterbox Symmetry case every time I wanted to hook up to the transmitter. YohannG's original design was usable as it was, I just...

Alan, when I go to slice the short screw using slic3r, the screw threads are not there. My PC is limited to this program as my graphics card is tool old to install OpenGL. Do you have a file that I can work with? The long screw looks fine.

 

[DanMan32]

Graphics card too old for OpenGL? OpenGL has been around since late 90's

I have an ATI Radeon HD 6000 series

The installer reports a problem installing when trying to install the AMD software.

I did use Alan's version of the screw. Seems to work well.

Now I have issues with the clamp since it needs supports as I can't print into thin air.

Sorry I just got this printer a week ago as a Christmas present. Seems that I need to buy a separate graphics card.

I have discovered an option in the SLIC3R program "generate support material" that added temporary support structures . I just need a cable that can reach into my Otter to connect to the controller. What did you use Dan?

Very nice indeed [emoji106][emoji3]
It’s amazing how you can make 3D prints

This works perfectly with the Otterbox case:

Awesome! Thank you!

Maelstrom, the cable works perfectly. Thank you​

I posted this in the Mini 2 discussion as that's what I have but these strobe mounts I designed for the Firehouse Dual Cree will also work on the Mini and are posted on Thingiverse.

More details, like weight, etc. can be found in the Mini 2 thread.

Thanks for starting the thread off Douglas..

I have been 3D printing for quite some time too.. I would not advise on brand or model of printer.. (controversial!)

However I can't be the only one who finds removing the Mini 2 batteries a difficulty (from the three battery holder and worse, the Mini 2 slot).. can I?.. my first design and print will be a puller that operates the release button on the battery and enables easy removal...

I'll post the design here when tested and finished

 

[Grazuncle]

Well here it is.. My battery puller

No it isn't a pair of tweezers! LOL .it doesn't work like that.. there is nothing on the battery release side to grip into. The shorter leg is only there to release the battery (very light pressure)..... you just press down slightly more on the top section with the blade in thin slot/groove where the battery and just pull the battery out.

stl is here.. DJI Mini Battery puller by grazuncle

For those with printers.. 100% fill, no supports (if printed as is), Plain PLA, use a brim or raft if you have bed adhesion issues.

I'll post this as a new thread.. it might be useful to someone else and not find it in the thread.

I use it all of the time now..

I would like to get the Mini battery puller

I'd send you one if only you weren't a few thousand miles away.

Check your local library. I have printed many pieces at the library here in Traverse City.

Thanks for sharing. I have been thinking of getting a 3D printer for a couple of years, but have held off. Might be time to pull the trigger.

I got one a month ago. Now I think Drones and 3d printing go hand in hand.
