TBS SOURCE MICRO ROCKET MOUNT

thingiverse

Well, uncle LeadAndSteel got into the magic tobacco and started acting a little crazy. My TBS Source Micro was flying at breakneck speeds, like it was going to blast off any second. I was thinking about how to make it even faster - 6 seconds? No way, considering I'm already pushing the limits with 4s motors. How about adding a rocket motor to the back? That would give me a serious boost of power. The hole in front is for when the parachute charge doesn't blow, and I end up crashing instead of soaring through the air. They make motors without the explosive charge, and that's what I recommend using. But since we're working with what we have, charged motors will do. I'm waiting on a GPS antenna to upgrade my quad, but it should be fast once I get it. My advice is to start by getting the quad moving quickly, then hit the rocket switch. If you try to rocket from a dead stop, it won't end well - trust me, we all like happy flights. Treat this thing like a nitrous boost and you'll have a blast. The tube is a tight fit, but it should accommodate small motors A, B, and C 17.5 without any issues. Just be prepared to do some sanding on the motor to make sure it fits snugly - I didn't want to risk having it eject into the woods and start a fire. Needless to say, this is an awesome idea, but you've got to be pretty damn good to pull it off. Don't even think about flying this thing in your mom's house unless you're ready for some serious remodeling with flames shooting out of the back. Hell yeah! Just keep this between us - if people find out what we're doing, they'll assume the worst. Make that quad zoom, buzz, and do flips - 4s or bust.
