RCExplorer Tricopter round CF tube adapter

thingiverse

Tricopter or mini tricopter broken boom? Can't source woven CF box section booms anymore? I had that problem after my V4 got caught in turbulence and then collided with a signpost. The tail boom snapped in two. You can use 2-part epoxy to glue these onto the ends of CF10mm tube (I got mine on Amazon, but most places selling CF should carry this) and mount the tilt mechanism onto the back of the boom without it twisting and getting misaligned. Do the same at the other end to prevent it from spinning around in the frame. I only needed to put these on one side of the tube, using a table to keep the flat parts of the adapters aligned on both sides while the epoxy cured. I've so far test hovered this and it seems pretty solid, so should be fine for more extended flights once the weather improves.
