RC Aircraft servo dropper (bomb drop)

thingiverse

I didn't do this design, but the web site where I originally downloaded it (yobi3d.com) apparently no longer exists. So, I thought I would make it available here. I've tried several servo "bomb drop" mechanisms, some from Thingiverse, and some from elsewhere and this seems to be one of the better ones. It's small, light, works well, and can easily be attached/detached from the aircraft. server-dropper.stl is the version that originally downloaded. I modified it to create servo-dropper_v3.stl. It has some support removed to work better with the large washers that our club uses for the "precision bombing" contest. The original has a channel modeld into into which is intended for a zip tie to fasten it to a strut or landing gear leg. v3 adds some "wings" with holes for screw/bolt mounting. After printing you need to a add a micro servo and connect it to spare channel on your receiver.
