Thanks to villamany for the original design (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1206960). I was going to print the originals for a friend but didn't have right embedded nuts to print right meow! What started as updates to the embedded nut opening ended as a bunch of changes - most notable being the inclusion of carbon fiber rods I had left over from my boat project for extra reinforcement.

Changes from the original:

  • Updated embedded nuts to M3 X D5 X L6 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000232858343.html
  • Updated motor mounting method to allow for the use of the aluminum baseplate included with the generic orange 2212 motors
  • Updated arm to allow for the use of 200 mm long 6 mm OD 4 mm ID pull-trusion carbon fiber tube reinforcement https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32310771446.html
  • Updated integrated landing feet mount under motor using 6mm od pull-trusion carbon fiber tube - note the feet are integrated and just snap off for assembly (see post processing pictures)
  • Updated my 2212 cooling impellers from my boat project to work with props, uploaded as a separate project

Note: to prevent support generation in arm section set overhangs to > 85 - also the carbon fiber tube will obstruct any XT60 or other connectors from passing through the top plate so if you are using them you will want to add the carbon tube after those parts are in place
