“Let’s Make It”: Bambu Lab and Insta360 Launch Luna Ultra Design Challenge on MakerWorld
Opening up camera hardware customization for the first time, this collaboration gives the maker community official Luna Ultra design files to let their imaginations run wild and compete for the latest products from both brands.
Bambu Lab and Insta360 today announced an official co-marketing collaboration, launching the Insta360 Luna Ultra Design Challenge on MakerWorld. Running from July 10 to August 9, 2026, this joint initiative democratizes accessory customization by releasing public 3MF and STL files for creators to build precision-fit camera gear. With the launch of its official brand page, Insta360 also becomes the first camera brand to establish an official presence on MakerWorld.
Expanding Camera Customization Through 3D Printing
Think Bold. Print Bold. That's the ethos driving this first-of-its-kind collaboration between Insta360 and Bambu Lab. This collaboration gives creators the freedom to think outside the box, shifting the experience from simply operating a camera to personalizing its look with custom-made camera gear. By moving past the limits of off-the-shelf parts, creators can now build custom, user-driven gear perfectly tailored to their unique taste or shooting environments.
The official 3MF and STL design files for the Luna Ultra are now available for public download on MakerWorld, empowering anyone to immediately begin building and printing custom hardware around the camera body.
“We see a shift where creativity doesn’t stop at capturing images—it extends into building and shaping the tools themselves. This collaboration between Insta360 and Bambu Lab brings together imaging and the maker community for the first time in this way, bringing creators the freedom to push the boundaries of what's possible. ” — Max Richter / Co-founder & Vice President of Marketing, Insta360
How the Challenge Works
To celebrate this collaboration, Insta360 and Bambu Lab are launching a dual-track competition designed to engage with designers, engineers, and creative minds. Participants can enter either—or both—of the following tracks:
Track A: Model Design Challenge
Built for 3D designers and engineers to create and upload their custom creations using the hashtag #PrintForLuna. Download the official Luna Ultra 3MF or STL design files on MakerWorld to build and upload precision-fit physical camera gear. Submissions focus on two core categories:
- Practical Add-ons (stability mounts, filming rigs, advanced creator tools) and
- Creative Mods (aesthetic covers, playful holiday themes, stylistic upgrades).
With MakerWorld's 1-click printing via the Bambu Handy App, these community-designed assets can be instantly brought to life by users worldwide.
Track B: Social Content Challenge
Built for creators, filmmakers, and imaging enthusiasts. Share your original Luna Ultra gear, DIY modifications, hand-drawn design concepts, or creative accessory ideas on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, or Reddit (r/Insta360).
Submissions can be photos, videos, or written ideas, and can be captured using any filming equipment. To enter, tag your post with the hashtags #PrintForLuna , #BambuLab , and #Insta360LunaUltra. Follow our official brand social media accounts to find full details and updates for this challenge.
Prizes & Timeline
A total of 40 joint awards are up for grabs across both competition tracks, featuring an extensive lineup of hardware prizes, gift cards, and coupons valued at a total of US$11,160.
Top creators will walk away with the ultimate setup featuring the newly released products from both companies: the Insta360 Luna Ultra camera paired with the Bambu Lab X2D Combo or the Bambu Lab A2L Combo 3D printers.
Submissions will be open for one month (July 10–August 9), and there will be regular prize announcements throughout the challenge, culminating in the final winners' announcement on August 20, 2026.
You Dream It. We Help Build It.
The best ideas from either track may be selected by Insta360 and Bambu Lab for further development, with the incredible possibility of being turned into an official product.
