WL Toys Quadcopter Replacement Arm
OK, I almost feel silly posting this, but..,
I really did break one of the carbon fiber arms, and I really did print a replacement that I designed. The design was an arduous, 2 mins in solidworks with a patience testing 4 mins on the printer.
Pros:
- It dimensionally fits
- It's rugged enough to hold up basic crashes
- it only takes 4 mins to make (and another 2 mins to design if you want to do it yourself)
Cons:
- With PLA, its a LOT heavier than the stock items, you will need ballast to offset. I used zip ties on the far side of the opposing rail.
- it also has more flex, which may be what is makinit unstable to throttle adjustments
If you need a quick replacement, this will work, at least until amazon can send you a replacement parts kit. Peace out.
