3D model description

I am totally in love with quadcopter, and so I bought myself a FPV 250. As newbie to this, I didn't think about how fragile the carbon props are compared to my skill ...

Lesson learnt, so I made this propeller guard, in hope it will save the next props I bought.

UPDATE 20150420-1200: I have added landing gears which could be mounted with cable ties or can be screwed with 3mm, so battery has enough space below. Additionally, I have modified the guards to take these landing gears and both could be screwed. Both parts could be used independently, but together will be good stuff.

UPDATE: After mounting these guards and the new 5030 props, I was successfully able to fly. I see no impact on flying behavior.

This one is for carbon arms with 3mm height, the drill hole will take a 3mm screw and drill hole has to be 30mm from middle of motor. Motor space is for 28mm, arm width is 24.2mm.

I will make it customizable and give you openscad once I feel it is good enough to publish.

If you have made good experience with this, please share your print and leave a comment ;-)
