Dragonfly parts

thingiverse

An improvement kit for the Dragonfly a/c from China. It is a weird model, made from some flexible foam. I don’t think it is sold any longer. The engine is originally out in the open and will be filled with dirt very easily so I designed a cowling. Attach the firewall to the plywood first former with glue and wooden screws. There are recesses for the screw heads in the back side of the motor adapter. Check fit here. You will need 4 short M4 nylon bolts for the cowling halves and 4 short M3 insex bolts for the motor adapter-firewall joint. Also the fuselage is very narrow, an exterior fairing for the ESC was needed. It will improve the ESC cooling too. The rear fuselage is quite bendy, I believe the early kits came with a CF strip to glue in the slot provided. I printed a replacement as my kit did not come with this. A joiner is provided if your printer, like mine, does not print the full length and so you need to make it in two parts. A tailwheel is included too. Improved fairleads for the control rods are included, I think two each side is a minimum.
