3 Axis Antenna Mount For RC Models *w/stir sticks /

thingiverse

Guys wanting small mounts for Foamies have me adding a small antenna mount for Foamies or extra tight spaces. There's enough room on the back for Velcro or 2 face tape. This is a 3-axis antenna guide for RC models that I couldn't find, so I had to be creative with mounting due to the position of the antennas and clearance inside the model. I fly large-scale models, but this should work well for any RC model with extended antennas. I decided to add the Z-axis mounting point to alleviate the problem and haven't seen one with 3 axes. You'll need to get 2 stir sticks from your local tavern or eatery, typically stiff tubes with a 3mm diameter. Select the 2-axis points you want your antenna to run and apply CA glue to the stick, inserting it into those holes in the mount. The fit is tight enough if you want to wick thin CA around the perimeter of the stick. Make sure your tubes aren't pushed more than a mm from the exit of the hole to the inside. If you do, just cut them back flush with the hole exit point. Please leave the "P" in the extrusion when printing or remixing this design to show it's my work. These mounts are very secure and give you many mounting choices. Have fun! Dave
