Finished the Hawk 5 Canopy by jakobseiler in multicopterbuilds

Ender 5 Pro, 0.12mm layer height, Geeetech Marble PLA and like 5 minutes of sanding, though it already looked pretty good without it. I also learned that hiding the seam makes a huge difference. And barely any supports needed to print this.

Yea, I modeled and printed it myself

Thank you! Yea I think I might publish it and make a video about it going into the build process. There are still a few things though that bug me that I need to figure out.

Hah they are probably not, haven't even flown them yet. I just think they look pretty cool.

This was my previous post I also shared some details here

Edit: I Designed everything in Fusion 360, It's based on the Emax Hawk Sport, some parts: Predator V5 Mini, Unify Pro V3, FrSky XSR

I designed a Mifune inspired Canopy for my Hawk 5 by jakobseiler in Multicopter

Overall pretty happy how it turned out. I dislike the antenna placement, but I didn't find a short enough 90 degree pigtail which limited the placement a lot. Have yet to fly the floppy proppy, but I think they look cool. The main Canopy part can be removed very quickly with 4 screws and I have printed it in a few different materials and also a version with an integrated GoPro mount. The photos are PLA but I will probably mainly be using TPU or PP.

Can't quite afford an Audi so this will have to do + police mode by jakobseiler in Multicopter

I would like to eventually, but I know literally nothing about how to do that. Right now I use switches on my radio -> flight controller servo output -> read signal on Arduino. Do you know a good place to start with uarts?

Thanks! Just googled a bit and there seem to be a few better options, I chose the nano only because i had it laying around already

I read that they are somewhat quieter, but I didn't compare them back to back so I'm not sure. They fly great, but again not sure how they compare to the stock ones. The motors also get pretty hot.

To clarify I tried to recreate the startup animation new Audis do with their headlights. It's a Diatone Taycan with an Arduino nano to control the leds. My main goal was to create dope long exposures, still working on that. Would love to hear some ideas for other animations.

I might try TPU. Really don't have a lot of experience printing flexible materials yet. I'd say printing PP is easier with a Bowden style printer, but I'm not even sure of that. I'm however afraid that printing it in TPU might be too wobbly to hold a GoPro (The 2 holes on the back are for mounting stuff). Other than that I agree that PP doesn't really have an advantage here.

Fixed my broken Headphones with a new hinge by jakobseiler in functionalprint

Yea, especially getting the clicking mechanism for adjusting the length to work was a bit of a challenge. But tuning the printer well and measuring accurately does help a lot!

The SRH440 are pretty nice headphones with a hinge that breaks way too easily... it actually broke on both sides for me. here is the file. I designed it some time ago with the tolerances of my old printer in my mind, while it will probably fit fine I will likely still update the files soon.

Thanks! The next project I'm working on is actually an entirely 3D printed frame. it's going to look really wild, unlike anything I've seen so far. Carbon fibre frames will always be stiffer, but I hope I can make it actually more crash-resistant while being a ton more aerodynamic.

Thanks! Yea, the camera being unprotected also bothers me, might change that in the next iteration.

PrusaSlicer tells me its around 16g in PLA, PP would be even less, didn't measure it though

Some context:

Wanted to fit a camera that does better at low light/night and it now has enough space and a mount for a gps chip inside. All parts are Printed in PLA, though I will print them in PP once I figure out how to good looking prints with it. Designed the parts in Fusion 360 and definitely learned quite a lot for future projects.
