As a long-time RC pilot, I really love the Mavic Air for it's videographic capabilities. It's really designed for the pilot to be the subject matter and you don't want the video to show you with a controller in your hands. But, I still wanted a lanyard attached to my controller so I built this for myself. I didn't want to go with adding a tablet like everyone else. I'm happy with my phone attached so I needed something that would work with that.

SIZE NOTE: This works for my Galaxy S9+ and this Align lanyard. It may not work correctly with smaller phones or other lanyards. Because this attaches to the palmrest arms, the angle will change with smaller phones. So, be aware before printing that this is designed for this phone but may work with similar-sized phones.

USE NOTE: I did not glue these two pieces together. The anchor point and the matched lanyard attachment size work well to hold it all together when in use. This requires less storage space and allows easier attachment to the remote control.
