The Gopro mounting architecture is fairly ubiquitous and comes with a lot of sturdy attachments. However, converting between that and standard 1/4-20 tripod mounts for other cameras or gimbals has always been annoying. Previous adapters available to either buy or print interfaced with the inter-meshing tabs on an existing “foot”, which introduced complexity and slop to the system.
This adapter seats directly in a Gopro mount bracket and threads directly into a 1/4-20 female mount. In my experience, 3D printed parts lack the flexibility to replicate the spring tabs on standard Gopro feet, so I’ve modeled this mount as a single block that friction-fits into the bracket. It’s got fairly good retention on its own, but a hole running through the back can take a 3mm rod or long machine screw to lock it into place.
It uses a countersunk 1/4-20×1/2 machine screw to attach to the camera.
For cameras with shallow receivers, the “Tall” tripod foot should prevent gaps between the camera and the foot.
All overhangs have 45° vaults to make supports unnecessary.
