Motor mount for x525 quadcopter

thingiverse

This is a rugged motor mount I built after shattering a pair of flimsy standard fiberglass ones. The concept originated from a design Physics_dude shared on http://thestuffwebuild.com/ It fits smaller motors with 34mm spacing, utilizing motor mounts. I manufactured it in Polycarb using ABS juice to reinforce the structure with a 10mm brim for added stability. I set my printer to 0.75mm walls and 0.6mm top and bottom layers at a 20% infill setting. It has proven more than sturdy enough to support 1000kv motors paired with 10x4.5" props, despite initial concerns. Additionally, the design doesn't obstruct landing gear. Nevertheless, it may make motor/esc cables slightly tighter due to the increased length.
