Ritewing Mini Drak Parts

thingiverse

I created some parts for the Ritewing Mini Drak. A VAS 1.3ghz BlueBeam Pro side feed Antenna cup is glued on top of the coroplast main hatch cover. The antenna lead drops into the vent behind it, as seen in the images below. "Hatch-Cover-Stay-Lip-r1" and "Mid Hatch Front Bridge" allow the BlueBeam Pro Antenna to stay in place while still accessing the front hatch for battery swap. The above parts are self-explanatory. They all need a "hatch stay" to work, and these are not hinged saddle covers; they are captive. A Foxeer Mix FPV cam mount is also available. All parts except the hatch stays are printed in TPU. The hatch covers have 30% infill, and supports are mandatory. When printing the hatch stays, make sure to select "print thin walls" in your slicer. That's what it's called in Cura, but I'm not sure about other slicers. Print the hatch stays at 100% infill. The "bridge" part uses 3mm x 10mm long standoffs pressed into the holes. The "Front Latch" is glued with E6000 onto the top center cover. I used glue on the top leading edge lip of the latch for extra strength. The Foxeer Mix DVR mount presses together, and the back section should be glued into place, but it's not mandatory. It fits nicely and stays in place with no problem. The Foxeer Mix FPV camera mount uses 4x 3mm standoffs. Two are sunk and glued into foam below the camera, and two are sunk and glued into foam below the main cover. The standoffs below the cam are flush, and the ones below the main cover are 3mm proud (see pics). The latch "bridge" has three 2mm holes in each leg. You can cut four-millimeter long dowels from leftover 2mm fiberglass spars that came with your mini drak and glue or press them into the foam in the main bay for extra reinforcement. I used E6000 only, and it's not going anywhere. The holes are there for those who want extra security.
