Dranzer Spiral (Complete Beyblade)

thingiverse

So uh, I think Thingiverse image handling is totally busted right now. None of the images load on this page, but you can still see them all by expanding them and clicking "View Original". No idea how to fix it, but at least the thumbnail shows up correctly. Edit 8/19/19: Nope, it was just really slow. As in, several days to fully process slow. This is a remarkably accurate remake of the plastic generation beyblade Dranzer S, AKA Dranzer Spiral. For the most part, it uses exactly the same parts as the original. It has the Double Wing attack ring, 8 Balance weight disk, and Spiral Change Base. Said blade base turned out to be more complicated than usual to facilitate the ability to switch between metal-sharp and hole-flat modes. Either way, it's highly recommended that the parts of the spin gear and blade base should be printed at half your usual speed. That being said, there are a couple intentional deviations from the official design. Firstly, it's set up to use standard spin gears, meaning users aren't forced to use what is effectively a standard right spin gear. Additionally, because the original mode change operation requires a spring to operate and could be knocked between modes during battle, I created my own mechanism. This becomes locked in place when the spin gear is attached, so there is no risk at all of mid-battle mode change. Credit goes to TightSkin, Mcup2, and UncleJoJo for the templates I used to create this.
