Pool Noodle Connector for FPV Gate

thingiverse

My go-to approach for a budget-friendly FPV gate that's perfect for practicing with my Quad involves utilizing 1/2" Schedule 40 PVC pipe and fittings, along with two pool noodles. The only thing I needed was a connector to securely join the pool noodles at the top. Since PVC is quite heavy, I decided to design this connector and print it out.\r\n\r\nTo assemble the gate, I applied PVC glue to the end pieces and joined them together, but left the long piece separate from the ends for easy transport and setup.\r\n\r\nIf you'd like to modify or rework my design, the Fusion 360 file is included.
