When i ordered the items for my tricopter, i forgot to order the parts for the tilt mechanism, so i had to be creative. I got the idea of making it oit of LEGOs, so i did, and this is how it turned out.
I like the concept, but how strong is the plastic from the lego? From the past, I know that the plastic would strip or break easily. Just a heads up. Log In to reply
Wow! Taht tilt mechanism is awesome! I live in Germany and couldn´t order the true rc explorer Hobbyking tilt so I used a modified webcam-stand ;D
The whole power of your motor is pulling on two small lego-parts of your tilt, only fastened with CA. I would use additionally two to reinforce your first three zip ties and wrap them around the tilt.
Nonetheless a great job! Log In to reply
It might look a little weak, but until now it has held up perfectly and i have had some crashes. And if something should break, then you can eazily replace it ;D Log In to reply
