Quadcopter (Drone) Upgrades V2

thingiverse

After completing my quadcopter build with purchased parts, I noticed that the battery required a case not only for protection but also to secure it without relying on battery velcro straps. Furthermore, by positioning the battery at the bottom instead of the top of the quadcopter, it achieves better balance and center of gravity. In conjunction with the battery holder, I discovered the need for landing gear to serve as feet so that the drone can stand upright without resting on the battery. I designed these components using openScad, and the source code is included in case someone needs to modify the original dimensions to suit their specific quadcopter requirements. In my situation, the hole distances align with a standard 220mm quadcopter carbon fiber frame. Version Two Following the first version's design, I realized that the landing gear was fragile and prone to breaking during hard landings. Additionally, I observed that the battery holder presented difficulties in printing, so I redesigned it with an open top for printing in its original position. The redesign also features a cage-like shape to make it lighter while allowing the battery to dissipate heat if necessary. I printed version two using PETG at 230 degrees Celsius and a heated bed of 65C.
