thingiverse

I designed this for the Mars 58-v2 parachute system . I have gave space on the plate for the parachute , mayday system and a small lightweight battery . this is a project in progress will post more as i have it . the parachute system this is designed for can be found at: https://www.marsparachutes.com/product/mars-58-v2/ Screws needed : 4 m3 x 20 2 m3 x 12 6 m3 lock nuts i done the plate in 2mm thick carbon fiber but you could easily use 3mm or if 3d printing, print solid and use as fine a layer as your printer will print to make it strong . 3d printing the plate may not be strong enough even at 3mm . if 3d printing with FDM printer you will want to see the post printing instructions bellow . print clamps solid . the design is so you can remove the thumb screws and still fold up the typhoon H for storage . also this design will benefit from the new kickstarter project at : https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2123788781/mars-nova-drone-parachute-radio very useful to deploy parachute . also provided is the fusion 360 files as well as step files . the Bolt pattern for the system can be found here . https://www.marsparachutes.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/58-BASE-Bolt-Pattern-1.pdf NOTE : the 2 slots on the plate close to the end are there for people that 3d print so that you can run a zip tie through the holes and around the arm of the drone . this is done as a safety in case the 3d print separates you will not lose your parachute from the drone . more to come .
