Can you 3D print a Trackimo holder for MP2?

[Mighty J Fury]

I bought a 3D printed holder for the first mavic that worked great. It was positioned the tracker directly behind the Drone. That won't work now because of the rear-facing sensors. Does anybody know of a 3D printing Guru who can fashion a holder for the tracker that fits on top of the battery of the Mavic 2? I'd rather not use adhesive because I have a decorative /protective skin on the Drone.

Would this work?

Top 1/4-20 mount

Some people are saying that mount blocks the GPS receiver.

Hmmm... not sure if it does or not, but I’ve flown at least three missions with my Gear360 mounted on that very adapter without issue.

It shouldn't block the GPS sensor since the tracker would be mounted directly on the battery comma behind the power button

That is a great find! Almost though... I need something that fits that screw that would hold the tracker. The Trackimo module doesn't have a screw socket

I used one to hold a 3 strobe light and battery. I cut a small piece of thin kydex 1' X 3" and drilled a hole for the stud. I attach the kydex with a 1/4-20 nut. Then I used Velcro to attach the light and batteries to it. The way I have it positioned it covers the button on the battery. I did not see this as a problem as it pops on and off easily. I'll post a picture of it later.

Great Ingenuity! I think this will be the solution if I can't get a holder fabricated. I already have some velcro on the Trackimo too...

So have I with no issues.

One lume cube fits with the pgytech top mount as it screws in and you can set it up to strobe. I have it on mine.

TheAlien: I think those posts you saw about interfering with GPS were referring to the metal object they placed on top that caused the interference, not from the 1/4-20 adapter. Other than the bolt, it's all plastic.

Right you are. I purchased that mount and found no interference with the mount itself.

So did I, Mike, and while I haven't used it to mount anything, I did make sure that it didn't reduce GPS signal reception. Still haven't installed the strobes but plan to Real Soon Now.
