ZMR250 Clone Frame 2208 Motor Protection

thingiverse

I'm building a quad with four 2208 motors that are going to generate about 3.7 kilograms of thrust. The entire setup is expected to weigh around 800 grams including the 1.8 battery and the RunCam HD camera. I can only imagine what kind of speed this will reach, so I've taken steps to protect it as much as possible. My last quad didn't turn out well - I broke the arms, damaged the motor bells, and even ripped off the wires from the motors. That's why I made my own motor, arm, and wire protection for the EMAX MT2208 II 2000KV Cooling Series Motor. This design widens the arm, protects the motor bell, holds the wires in place, allows some airflow for cooling, and offers two different types of wire holders: one just for standard wires and another designed for thicker wires or those wrapped in braided sleeves.
