F450 2212 Motor Mount for 12 MM Carbon Fiber Tube

thingiverse

Human: 2/22/17 Minor adjustment for M3x6mm motor mounting screws. If you print the original, I recommend using 8mm screws; otherwise, the rev2 file works seamlessly with M3x6mm .50 thread screws. I decided to rebuild my Cheerson CX-20 in a F450 frame but was not satisfied with the stiffness of the kit arms. After searching for an arm design on Thingiverse, I found one that caught my eye and hacked it, shortening them slightly, resulting in stiffer arms than the F450 kit arms. However, I wanted better. In my quest for the perfect arm, I came across some motor mounts designed to attach to the ends of carbon fiber tubes but were 16mm; I opted for 12mm tubes instead. This design was born out of that necessity. Keep in mind that this is a work in progress. I have yet to order my tubes or print these parts, so they may undergo changes in the near future. Required Parts * Carbon fiber tube 12mm OD with 8mm ID * 4x M3 Bolts 25mm length * 8x M3 Washers * 4x M3 Nyloc Nuts Print out of PLA at .2 layer and 50 percent infill.
