I designed this display stand for FPV style drones.

If you don't have a 3D printer but would like one of these, I now sell them on my Etsy store here:

Whilst I built this from scratch, there are a couple already on here that I took inspiration from, but I found them either unbalanced or that they require a crazy amount of support material to print.

This doesn't require any support material, and it can hold even larger drones (see pictured my Chimera 7 HD) at a cool looking 25 degree angle very securely.

In the pictures you can see it holds a wide range of drones, from my Bumblebee, through the Nazgul5, all the way up to the Chimera 7!

If you'd like to check if it will fit your quad in it's default scale, the two prongs are 55mm apart (centre to centre) and are 5mm wide.

For most drones, you'll rest your quad with the front arms hooking behind the prongs. If however you have something more like the bumblebee, look underneath your quad and find a pair of holes that will fit them (check there are no cables, components or propellers that the prongs could damage before placing).

I printed this in PLA at 40% infill with Gyroid infill. You could probably get away with lower infill (especially for smaller/lighter quads), but as I was going to be using heavier quads on it I didn't want to risk it. Even if you do lower the infill for most of it, I'd recommend using a decent amount of infill on the prongs as this is what will be holding back the drone from sliding off so you don't want them to be brittle. Mine at 40% feels rock solid!
