Uber 180 Redesign -- No Supports Needed, VTX + Cam Mounts, Motor Guards

prusaprinters

This is a redesign to add features to the Uber and make it more printable. Mid: Modifies the design for print-ability. No support is necessary. Original was hard to print and required support. It has been modified to have the cross spars for the battery strap at the bottom, so they can print right on your bed. The bottom has also been flattened, as the original had basically no surface area. Please let me know how these work for you. Top: Adds an SMA connection hole to the top plate of the Uber 180. Needed to protect your vtx and also a good way to mount the vtx without any other fasteners. Also removed rounded corners to make printing easier. Top With Cam Mount: Added a camera mounting hole for standard size FPV cams. It is angled at 40 or 30 deg, depending which file you choose. Please let me know if you want a different angle, or a different camera size. I tried to make it user configurable, but it just wasn't possible. Motor Mount: Added a small guard piece to the motor mount. Should protect the motors from most impacts from the side. They fit rs2205s and should fit any 220x motor. Notes Materials Nylon 910 is the recommended material. Well printed PLA might be strong enough for some pieces some of the time, but Nylon is really the only material strong enough to make this frame viable. Printing Go slow and hot to insure good bonding. Thin layers are recommended for strength, depending on your material. Assembly You can refer to the original uber180(shown as the remix on this page) for cut lengths and assembly instructions. I chose to dye my nylon orange with RIT dye. I lightly glued motor mounts to tubes using superglue. Using less glue means you might actually be able to get it apart later. Hardware: I used 20mm m3 button head screws and 10mm nylon standoffs with standard 35mm aluminum standoffs on top, from a ZMR kit. I recommend metal screws and standoffs all the way up for structure. I had some nylon screws and they sheared off on impact. Category: R/C Vehicles
