ZOHD Drift custom motor mount

thingiverse

Please read all notes: I found when opening the throttle on the ZOHD Drift, there was a vicious -down- pitch moment present. I examined the thrust-line but that seemed to be spot-on the CG. I designed some different motor-mounts anyway, just to see if I could improve it, and I did. What I ended up with after some experimenting and test flying is a 3D printed mount that is 3.5 degrees down from the original. Way better now! If using the .stl, please slice with a brim, otherwise it is very likely the bottom will be warped. The included gcode has brim enabled. Resolution 0.12 BEFORE inserting, drill hole for the retaining screw (marked) with 1.6/1.7mm or 1/16" on the bench as straight as possible. Because of the angle, make sure you insert the mount correct side up. (Motor should lean more forward) I used PLA+, it might be too brittle with standard PLA, use at your own risk.
