Flysky / Turnigy i6 Stick Protector (friction fit)

myminifactory

WARNING - to achieve an optimal friction fit, I deliberately designed the hole slightly undersized, so for best results, carefully sand down the inner diameter until it fits snugly. This design is specifically tailored for use with FlySky and Turnigy i6 controllers, providing a secure hold on the sticks while also shielding them from potential impacts that could cause damage. My goal was to create a stick protector that wouldn't obstruct the lanyard loop, so I opted for a friction fit instead, which may require some sanding on your part - I found that pencils have an ideal diameter, and attaching sandpaper to one works beautifully. Additionally, I wanted this design to showcase the capabilities of 3D printing, making it slightly challenging to print. To ensure success, I recommend printing at a slow speed and taking extra care with retraction settings to minimize stringing issues; in some cases, using a heat gun can be an effective way to remove excess material.
