Turnigy 9XR Mobile/Tablet FPV Mount

Turnigy 9XR Mobile/Tablet FPV Mount

Description

NEED TO PRINT ONLY 3 STL FILES: HANDLE MOUNT, MOUNT-TOP-OPEN-V3, & MOUNT BOTTOM-V3 - Other STLs are for reference only. --> I printed it in 0.4 resolution to speed up the printing process (looks shabby), but 0.2 is recommended. Summary: Since long I was looking for the perfect FPV monitor mount for Turnigy 9XR. I needed a mount that can accommodate mobile phone (Google Pixel 2XL) or tablet (Nexus 7 2013-Generation 2) After some research, I came across 2 makes. I modified them, and incorporated both of them into my design to serve my purpose. There are 2 versions of mount top part (sliding part of the mount) V1 - Closed end - makes it impossible to install 2nd set of M3 screws on bottom part (use wire tie then) - I printed this one, but then used wire tie to fix the base-mount on 9XR handle lower screw holes. V2 - Open end - Strongly recommended to print this one as it allows to install both the set of screws - Please note: Support required everywhere to print this part. I select support density to be 6% in Cura 4. I have used wire-ties for now as I don't have M3 screws 40 mm long. Important Note: Please use 2 rubber bands, so if 1 break, other will still hold the device. If any doubt, write it in comment section; I will reply you. Thanks to makers of source files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:356424 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1313336 Updates - 21/10/2019: I bought 4 screws M3x40mm (see pics), and converted my v1 sliding part to v2 with my hacksaw. Now it fits awesome on the handle. I have used socket head type hex screws, but you may find flat head screws, which will be better than the one I have used. But the mount has enough clearance that even with socket head screws, screw head stays away from the back of Nexus tablet. I will change to flat type once they are available. I also designed 3rd versions for Mount_Top_Open (sliding part) & Mount_Bottom. They are designed such that the head of bolts will dip inside the body and won't pop out. So the back of the tablet/phone will not touch the screw heads.
