Description

Summary

++++WHY++++

I searched for FPV Lens Protection Covers, as I transport my Drones on the outside of my backpack. I'm an idiot, so I keep bumping into things with them. A lens protector is vital for dimwitts like me.
 

The Protectors I found (I sure haven't tested them all) where rather simple designs, not taking into consideration that the Lens cover needs a spacer on the inside to protect the lens (read as: the "Protector" shouldn't lay right ON the lens or it might scratch it if there is the tiniest speck of dirt or dust on the lens or inside the cover!).

 

I therefore made a quick design which takes this into consideration and figured it would be nice to share it with you.

++++WHAT++++

I use the "normal" Lens cover without any modifications on any 14mm camera lens.
Such as my

  • Caddx Polar
  • Mamba Runcam 2
  • Caddx Rattel 2

I use the "Tiny" lens cover on my

  • Diatone Roma F1

which sports a 12mm camera lens.

++++HOW++++

Print in TPU.
The Lens is slightly smaler than the Camera diameter to fit snug on it.
There might be improvements on this cover within the nxt few days.
