Front and Rear Mounts - Trex450 Pro V2 in A-109 Fuselage

thingiverse

For mounting a Trex450 Pro V2 heli into an Align A-109 scale fuselage. The V2 version of the Trex450 Pro doesn't fit properly in the fuselage using the stock mounts, so I designed these mounts which slip over and under the plywood mounting platforms inside the fuselage. This makes it FAR easier to remove the heli from the fuselage for maintenance because only one screw, in front, is required to keep the mounts from sliding forward. The Rev 1 of the rear mounts doesn't have screw holes, as they are not necessary. The photo shows the version with the holes. Instructions Made with MakerGear M2, 0.200mm layers. Best printed on-end so the layers are perpendicular to the long axis of the mount for greatest strength. The version in the photos was done in PLA. I also made this in nylon. I'm flying the PLA version now (during the cold months), but I'm going to switch to the nylon mounts before the weather turns hot.
