This is a mini power pod for the Flite Test Super Bee.

It can probably be used for any other Flite Test plane that uses the mini power pod but the Super Bee specifically calls for the slight downward angle of the motors.

This has mounting holes on the front for the motor that I'm using with it.

It also has holes for the BBQ skewers that they recommend using to hold the power pod in place.

The picture does a horrible job of showing the actual power pod but you can see where the BBQ skewers go through it. I'm using a laser cut piece of MDF on the front of the power pod as a thermal break to prevent the motor from heating up the PETG and warping it.

1/14/2017 - Added another version with slightly less tilt. I based the previous tilt on the Super Bee model but after flying it I think I need less of an incline on the front. So I reduced it from 5 degrees to 3 degrees.

8/29/2017 - Added a bearing hole to all models as well as two heavier versions where the walls are 1mm thicker.
