I didn't find a suitable thread, so I made a new one...
The original lens is too wide angle for my intended use (mostly aerial photography and video), so I wanted an affortable replacement lens with a tighter FOV... I had a broken Mobius action camera with "A" lens on hand, so I figured I try to screw it to Yi, since they both share the common 12Mx0.5 thread size.
It seemed to fit fine, but unfortunately I couldn't focus it to distance, it didn't screw far enough, ie. close enough to the sensor... My fingers were in perfect focus though!
Well, that would've been too easy and convenient...
Edit: I might try to use some sandpaper to make it work...
