This kit contains modified side plates to suit the Fullspeed RC Leader 120 quad to allow for fitting a micro CCD camera with backback TX with a good tilt range plus a larger LED/buzzer board.
This latest version (V3) allows for fitting of different lens length micro cams with a slotted mount. Also larger stack space should fit a stack of around 27mm which should fit a runcam swift mini stack in addition to the leader stacks with minor mods, but I haven't tested this.
The original design of the Leader frame by Rohens Lei of FD racing is awesome, but was done before these cameras became available.
A section of the camera mount arm is 0.5mm thinner to allow for the 19mm wide camera to fit in the 18mm gap between the plated when mounted on the standard frame.
This kit includes aThis is designed for use with the 3d printed canopy pictured, you can find it here : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2496691 There are 1mm thick and 1.5mm thick canopies available. I printed my 1.5mm thick one in red TPU, but something like nylon might be best being stiffer. The Elf micro cam wedges up in the canopy, and can be secured with double sided tape or hot melt glue. You can get about 35 degrees of tilt with this setup.
The frame requires 2mm screws and standoffs to complete
I used from bottom to top :
5 x m2 x 12mm long countersunk screws through the bottom frame to hold the bottom standoffs on
5 x m2 3.5mm long nylon standoffs on the bottom (up to 5mm will be ok)
Fit the fc preferably with originial rubber grommets. I broke a few and use silicone wire sheath cut from 18awg wire, but it may be just fine without.
This kit allows you to use the DYS elf stack in a 3mm CF 128mm X frame and run 3" props.
You can use the stock 1102 motors, but will need to extend the motor wires, so going to larger 11XX motors wwill probably be your best bet to get the most thrust from this size.
If you want to use the stock cam in a 3d printed canopy, you can find one here : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2496691 There are 1mm thick and 1.5mm thick canopies available.

Slide the side plates onto the top plate and mount your micro cam in there.
This kit includes a top and bottom plate to suit the mount hole pattern for the DYS Elf quadcopter and allows it to use stock motors and 2" props. This provides a lot more thrust especially on 3s!

The 2mm top plate included also is designed to use my CF side plates to for a micro cam. These are not included in the kit yet, but I will update once I get first samples and test for fit. :)

Modified LHS side plate for the Fullspeed RC Leader 120 quad to allow for fitting a micro CCD camera with backback TX with a good tilt range plus a larger LED/buzzer board. You will also need the RHS plate for a matched pair!

This frame will allow for fitting 2" props to the Dys Elf micro quad while retaining the stock electronics.
I also have a CF top plate available which works nicely with the pictured 3d printed canopy and stock CMOS cam or with side plates (soon to be uploaded) for a micro CCD cam.
Versions :
V2 has more material around where the x-arm attatches to the motor disc.
Carbon fibre top plate for the DYS Elf micro quad. Matches nicely with my 98mm frame for a 2" elf on stock electronics. Works well with my 3d printed CMOS cam canopy (on thingiverse here : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2496691).
This top plate also matches my elf128 frame so you can go completely bonkers and make a 3" capable elf!

Frame to suit the Dys Elf micro quad electronics and 3" props. Had 5mm wide arms.
Works well with my 2mm top plate and 2mm micro cam side plates for a micro CCD cam mount or just the top plate and my 3d printed CMOS cam mount. I would recommend 6500kv dys be1104 motors on this one.
