Crossfire Quadcopter for Thing-O-Matic

thingiverse

This is a step-by-step guide to building MikeyB's Crossfire Quadcopter using a Thing-O-Matic printer with a 12cm x 12cm print bed. First, the arms and plates were printed in two versions depending on the flight control board used. The arms were joined together using ABS glue for a stronger bond than epoxy or other glues. Next, bullet connectors were soldered to the motor wires of ESCs, and power wires were connected to the power distribution board. The ESCs were attached to the arms using top plates and tie wraps, and motors were mounted with M3x8mm screws. The flight control board and RC receiver were then mounted and wired appropriately. After attaching propellers, the quadcopter was tested by connecting the battery and configuring it as a Quad X. Finally, the motor directions were checked and marked, and the quadcopter was ready for flying. The builder takes full responsibility for using these files and instructions, and emphasizes the importance of reading up on RC safety before attempting to fly the quadcopter.
