Tricopter tail tilt mechanism

thingiverse

I use this on my tricopter based on David Windenstål's design. This tail assembly is inspired by the flitetest toughtilt system. Print Settings Printer: Prusa i3 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Doesn't Matter Infill: 30% Notes: This is printed with 0.2mm layer height, in PLA. Use 3-5 mm brim for printing the tri_copter-tail part or it will come lose. Post-Printing Mounting Some sanding might be required to get smooth motion. If needed drill out the center hole to 3mm. Use 3 3mm carbon fiber tube (I was all out) or a suitably long 3mm screw through the center holes. Fasten this with a bit of epoxy or super glue to at the back end. Use suitable screws (I find the ones that is packaged with most servos fits just fine) to attach the large servo arms to he tilt mechanism. Add some double sided tape, and some thin wood if needed between the printed part and the servo to bring the servo up so it is aligned with the center axis of the tilt mechanism.
