Crab Drone

thingiverse

Here's a hexapod Crab Drone, modeled in openscad with precision engineering. I've successfully printed it at about 130% on my Ender 3 Pro 3D printer. The print job was completed at 30mm/sec, with both supports and z-hop enabled for a smooth finish. I use blue painter's tape to ensure a strong bond between the print and the surface. If you experience trouble getting the legs to stick properly, try using a raft as an extra layer of support. This will help prevent the legs from detaching during printing. I was inspired by Scuttler (Mobile Arms) by CosuCreate, a talented designer on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2946916 To print this model successfully, you must enable supports. After the print is complete, use pliers to carefully remove the support material, and your hexapod Crab Drone will be ready for assembly. ## Customizer Options You can customize the print settings using our interactive customizer tool. Switch from printing a six-leg hexapod to a four-leg quadrapod by setting middle_legs to false in the customizer settings. Additionally, you can adjust the antenna height and tweak the appearance of the head for a unique look.
