MV-22B Osprey Briefing Stick (Airplane mode)

thingiverse

Driveshaft does not fit inside the wing straight from the print. Put the driveshaft in the chuck of a drill and lightly sand until the tolerance is good. You want a little bit of friction so the nacelles don't just fall down on their own. Make sure to put the gear in the middle of the wing and add a small amount of super glue to connect it to the driveshaft and make a thumbwheel. Added some smaller versions that are 60% of the originals along with some beefed up wings and empennage for added strength. I used a 3mm grill skewer for the driveshaft on these ones. Same as the big Osprey. Put the skewer in a drill chuck and lightly sand until the tolerance is good, then cut skewer to length. MV-22B Osprey Briefing Stick in airplane mode. 10.5mm (3/8") hole in the back for dowel rod. The props are universal for all 4 models. 4 models - 1 in airplane mode, one helicopter mode, one ~60deg nacelle angle, 1 conversion version. When looking at the aircraft from aft to front, with nacelles rolled down in airplane mode, the left proprotor rotates counter clockwise and the right proprotor rotates clockwise. I am in the US Navy’s Flight School and have made collection of briefing sticks of the aircraft I have flown thus far. Try out some of these other models as well. They all are made for a 10.5mm / 3/8” dowel rod. Use a hook and eye on the end of the dowel rod to hang it up. Some of the props spin and other are super glued on.
