Pitot mount for XUAV Clouds

thingiverse

I was really impressed with the Pitot mount from BreakX and planned to print it in TPU, but my printer just wouldn't cooperate. I tried printing it 10 times, but nothing seemed to work out. So, I decided to tweak the design a bit. I used the rubber vibration dampener balls that worked so well for my Vector mount, so I added a holder to this one too. The pitot tube fits perfectly and snugly in place, but can still be pushed back in for storage purposes and easily pulled out when it's time to fly. This design was printed with Hatchbox black ABS using a .2mm layer height and supports. A clever cutout on the side allows the vibration ball to slide in sideways, and once the pitot tube is securely seated, it can't be pushed back out through that opening. As always, I've uploaded the Sketchup file for anyone who wants to make any modifications or changes. If you're interested in getting the same rubber vibration dampener balls I used, you can find them on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NCQFPXQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
