Gopro Fence mount

Gopro Fence mount

Description

I record my son's baseball games using my Gopro Hero 10. I wanted to record the whole game without it overheating while attached to the fence. The design is fairly simple (and my first). It has shade on top, a mount for the gopro and 4 holes for some bungee cords. I also added a strain relief for the power cables. I use an external rugged solar battery for the Gopro and remove the internal battery. I also have a USB powered fan that connects to the same external battery. The fan has a bendable arm and I just zip strip it and flex it towards the Gopro. I added a gopro cage as sort of a heat sink for the camera. I also cut a piece of thin insulation for the front and top to protect the camera from the heat. During testing I was able to record max resolution 5.3K 60FPS for an hour with no overheating in 100 degree heat (Texas). It also has taken hits from balls from the other side of the fence with no issue. I realize in PLA the heat will eventually get to it but that's what I printed it in and it seems to be holding up just fine. We play 2 hour games.
