MarmoPod - Canopy for Armattan Marmotte

thingiverse

Behold the mighty MarmoPod: a canopy for your busted Armattan Marmotte bottom plate. Watch its maiden flight here: https://youtu.be/LRtGXdeOsqY Print in TPU with two perimeters and about fifteen to twenty percent 3D infill (I prefer Gyroid). With supports, obviously. Top and bottom: eight layers each. Layer height is .2-.3mm. It's a long print and the result weighs about twenty grams. "But why?" you ask? - I have a busted Marmotte bottom plate that is still somewhat usable. - I need a backup racer. - And because this is fun, in a nerdy way. Important: Flying the frame like this voids your Armattan warranty! Yes, I checked. Proceed at your own risk. Mounting: The canopy is mounted on the frame backwards - what was the front of the frame (where the titanium cage was mounted), is now the back. You will also need to reuse the original back standoffs and move them to the "new back". For them to fit there, you will need to dremel out the protrusions in the slots at the "old front" where the titanium standoffs were mounted. For securing the canopy to the frame, you will need six M3 screws and four nuts.
