Tripod Feet for Insta360 Selfie Stick (or legs for most monopods)

large_preview_Screw.png

This is feet (legs) for the Insta360 invisible selfie sticks, remixed from Mini Tripod 150mm by DiAleksi. With this, you can give your invisible selfie stick (monopod) feet so that it can stand the Insta360 camera upright. I use this for doing virtual tours and Matterport 3D tours.

The main changes from the original design in this remix is that it has a printable screw (so you do not need to buy a metal 1/4 screw) to mount it to the selfie stick. The main connector also has a screw thread now instead of just a hole, and I made a shorter version of the feet so you can stand your monopod upright on a staircase for doing those Matterport tours.

Required Extra Parts

Three M3 screws, 14 or 16mm length.

Printing Instructions

Print the connector with at least 4 perimeters and at least 20% infill. It must be 0.20mm layer height MAXIMUM (0.10mm layer height preferred) or the screw threads will not align good.

Print the screw with “100 perimeters” so that it’s completely solid, also at 0.20mm layer height maximum. I also recommend a small brim unless you have excellent bed adhesion.

Print three of the feet (either the standard feet or short feet) with at least 4 perimeters and at least 20% infill. Layer height does not matter, I did 0.30mm layer height for faster printing.

Assembly Instructions

Make sure the screw is cleaned nicely with a razor to remove any brim or elephant foot. Apply superglue to the threads and screw it into the connector from the top, until it’s flush with the bottom of the connector. Let it dry for a few hours.

Install the three feet onto the connector with the M3 screws. If you want to use longer M3 screws you can add a nut on the ends but I don’t feel it’s necessary.

Now you can screw the whole thing right into the bottom of the selfie stick!
