I recently got the Eryone StarOne, and searching for things to add on to it, I noticed, there is nothing for this printer!!! But after some searching I realized that that what I actually have is the Voxelab Aquila X2.

I use Octoprint so I wanted to add a cam to this printer. I found this cam on Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09KCJ36FS

Then I needed to find a way to mount it to the printer. Came across this one

But was not crazy about (1) the way it mounted to the printer and (2) how long the arm was. I started to search for a different mount and found this one.

But was not crazy how it was designed to mount a cam. I remixed it to add the connector from the cam mount. I then took the arm from the first thing and mirrored it so it will work on the left side. At first I kept it the original length but found the cam to close to the bed and the video was a little blurry because it was way to close. I then held the cam at different distances and angles and found a good spot took some mesurements and then cut it up and remixed it.

Printed the mount as it was originally and as I was taking the supports off, it broke with ease. So I did some remixing:

A - Filled in this area

B - Removed the side walls to allow for more movement to adjust the angle

C - Made the mount area longer for more support

D - Added more material below the mount (C) to add more support.

I have included the 3MF files for both parts with some areas as separate parts. not sure how these files will act in other 3D editing programs, but, I do my remixing in MS 3D Builder. For example, the arm is broken into 5 parts, so you can extend or shorten, and make the angle longer or shorter.

I might remix this to add a GoPro mount but, You can remix this to accommodate any cam mount out there. If you do a remix, please post it I would love to see it.
