Mavic + Insta360

[Neto]

An Insta360 One hanging underneath the Mavic.
I made the adaptor on a 3D printer.
It’s pretty lame, but worked.
Will post later on Thingverse if someone wanna give it a try.
If your not familiar with Insta player, try with the icons on the bottom right to adjust the view.
For those not familiar with the “invisible selfie stick” effect, 360 cameras are not able to record their absolute top and bottom. That’s why in this video the camera seems to be floating under the Mavic.

Very impressive. How did you mount it?

Let’s see if I have enough english to explain
This is the adaptor.

1. The piece is fixed by pressing it underneath the Mavic, against those to black things on the back.

2. Those two “C” shaped grips are for a pair of pgytech lights that I bought for the mavic air by mistake, so I didn’t have how to attached them.

3. Finally there is the Inta360 suport (or any other small camera). It’s sort of a tripod head upside down, where the camera if fixed with a screw.

The biggest problem is the way it is fixed (1). It’s kind of fragile...easy to drop.

But I’ll fix it

Any way to mount it close the center of gravity instead of so far back? I would think the FC would be using a lot more battery trying to correct the balance from where you have it.
I suppose you would have to turn the downward VPS off.
