Building a Raspberry Pi HQ camera module into a pistol grip chassis. It's really hacked-together as a learning exercise for OpenSCAD, so it's by no means perfect. It's thus a work in progress, and some bits might improve over time.

Update 2020-07-01: improved locating foot and shoe tolerances.

Update 2020-07-07: Improved strength of locating shoe on handle

You'll need four M2.3x8mm self-tapping screws to fit the camera. The sloping top is designed to mount a Raspberry Pi in a case using Velcro strips. I'm using a cheap touchscreen for the interface. The handle can take a battery, its designed to fit two 18650s in holders but I use a single 18650 booster pack.
