Dye i5 Action Camera Top Mount (DJI Osmo Action)
Description
**Do not buy a DJI product.** In oder to use it the **manufacturer forces you to install an app** on your smartphone and create an account. That app is so full of junk, bloatware and spyware that even the data-hungry Google refused to add it to the PlayStore. You have to side-load and deactivate any security feature to do so.Without the app (and the account) you are unable to activate the action camera. Without activation it gets blocked after 5 times skipping the activation process. **Congratulations to your now contaminated smartphone** or unusable product. ### What is it? Attach your action camera to your paintball mask. This is made especialy to fit an Dye i5 full face mask and a DJI Osmo Action 4. It may fit other masks (like Dye i4) and action cams (they usually use the same mounting system), too. The base fits right between the two raised stiffeners in the middle. The hooks are only meant to help during assembly. All the attachment force is applied by the M4 screw. I recommend to add a washer or use a screw with wide head. This design is meant for the original DJI mounting screw. Third party attachments may differ in length (see pictures). ### What has changed? I narrowed the slot for the M4 nut to not let it swivel too much. Then there is a cut-out for the M5 screw to keep it in place while no screw is mounted. That helps with tightening, too. The other side features a landing / bump area now. The middle "fin" got thicker. The space the middle "fin" and the outer ones is narrowed down. The outer "fins" got adjusted, too. Sliding the "fin" part of an accessoire into the mount should now leave nearly no slack. Meassurements are really close to the original (speaking for DJI). ### BOM 1 pc. M5 nut 1 pc. M4 nut 1 pc. M4 x ~8mm screw 1 pc. M4 washer, optional ### Miscellaneous In case you would like change something, the SketchUp! file is included as usual. Maybe you want to create a plate that attaches between the hooks to spread the clamping force of the screw to the area of ventilation slots.
