Fly Products Paramotor Strobe Mount

thingiverse

I designed this to secure a FAA compliant strobe to your paramotor frame with little to no chance of going into the propeller or snagging a glider line. Use to mount a bright white strobe or red/green flashers. You should be able to mount to the top or either side of your paramotor cage. ## Strobes The strobes I used are [SYMIK Drone Strobe Lights](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BMFR8W4C?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) and are super bright and inexpensive. Other multirotor drone strobes meant for FAA compliance should fit ok too. ## Sizing Measure the outside diameter of your frame tubing in millimeters. Download the STL file that most closely matches your diameter. For example, if your diameter is 16.25mm download the MM16 STL file. There are also some vendor specific files for Fly Products Rider and FlatTop. Message me if you need a custom size. ## Fly Products This specific STL fits perfectly in the small rectangular space during cage assembly. It can mount to the top, or either side of the frame exactly where the frame quadrants come together. See picture, the cylinder mount goes on one frame quadrant support before assembly. The Rider frame then assembles as usual. There is no way to remove the strobe mount once the Rider cage is assembled. The strobe mount is easily removed again during cage dissassembly for charging. The strobe mount can rotate some and should be pushed flush with the frame as shown in the image. The top retaining tab should face the pilots head not the propeller side so it prevents the mount from rotating towards the propeller. Rotate out and away in order to access the frame disassembly pin. The rotation should always be towards the pilot and not the propeller. Ensure the mount is oriented so the top retaining tab is towards the pilot! (For a Moster 185, improper orientation will still not reach the propeller, but thrust suction might be enough to change the strobe angle.)
