TINY TIE - 3D PRINTABLE INDOOR FPV TIE FIGHTER QUADCOPTER

pinshape

Inspired by the iconic TIE fighter, The Tiny TIE is designed as a DIY 3D printable performance indoor first person view (FPV) TIE racing platform. It performs similarly to the Inductrix and the Tiny Whoop. With FPV, you can fly the drone while watching the video feed from the on-board camera in near real-time, giving you a thrilling sense of piloting the quadcopter. The wings act as landing gear, protecting the props against most accidental impacts, making it incredibly durable. The design has been optimized for stability and responsiveness, ensuring a smooth flying experience. You can see a video of it in action here: Stay up to date on this design and find other 3D printable designs not yet on Thingiverse on our website http://www.3drebeldesign.com Other Necessary Components: Flight Controller: The Tiny TIE has been tested with both the BeeCore and BeeBrain flight controller, but there are many equally good or better options available.
