3D printed part request (for Phantom 4)

[thunderbird]

Hey no worries, I myself didn't have much time to work on it thats why wondering

If anyone has an idea for a 3D printed part you'd like for your Phantom 4 (that doesn't already exist today), please post a detailed description of your idea below. A few people on this forum have 3D printers (like me) and would likely be able to help make these ideas come to life.

Here are some of the parts I've created so far:

• Phantom 4 Battery Cover (to protect the battery terminal)
• Phantom 4 Battery Charger Cap (to protect the connector on the battery cable)
• Phantom 4 Motor Caps (to protect the prop locking mechanism on top of the motor)

A fake battery that opens from the top to keep small items in. It should fit in the battery slots in the default carry case and in the custom foam backpacks and cases.

Oh this sounds fantastic but non commercial 3D printers might not be able to perform this request

I could print this on my non-commercial 3D printers. It would most likely be an 8+ hour print though, so it's a pretty tall order for anyone who is looking to print a mass quantity of them.

Thingsverse have a more protective motor cap.

Just printed it and it works superb. Also, could you please share the files you've created with us?

Tcould you please share the files you've created with us?

I don't share my models. Sorry

I need a gimbal lens lock.

Polar Pro makes this one. If you're looking for something different, then please provide more information.

 

[DonaldictTrumperbatch]

Is there a 3D model for a gimbal&lens cover like that polarpro one? It looks quite simple but they charge 20$+shipping...

It looks quite simple but they charge 20$+shipping

It's $19.99 with free shipping here on Amazon. I bought one, but I prefer the OEM lock.

But I want to pay 0$ for the model

 

[msinger]

Hah... well, build it

Funny, Do you have any idea how long to design something and how many iteration it takes
As he said if you expect for free then build yourself

I'd pay $10 for this.

I'd have to charge a lot more than $10 in order to tie up a printer for the entire day. That's the main reason I normally do not attempt large builds like this. Now, if I just had room to store 20 printers...

Nice stuff. I might be ordering one of your items. So here is an idea. What about a mock battery cover for the drone itself. I remove the battery when transporting. But would like a cover to prevent dust and debris from entering the voided space on the drone. Just a thought.

 

[Erised]

Good idea Geeno! I would buy one for shure.

I second and third this idea! Just a piece to cover the opening.

Motor caps are amazing! Those others were junk! Thanks Mike!
