About this 3D model

Looking to BEEF-UP your quad a bit?! PUT a little SPRING in your multirotor's step with my radical shock-absorbing extension legs! Designed with the famously cloned q450/f450 flamewheel style X-frame quadcopter in mind. Looking for a project to use your leftover McMaster MK8 extruder mod springs on (Part# 9657K331).. WELL, look no further! This .thing is a bonafide REMIX.. a 2 .thing mashup.. heavily influenced by yet another, 3rd .thing. What you're looking at: chrismalyon's "Flamewheel F450 Extension legs", cut down to use as a mounting & pivot bracket as well as upper-spring perch.. + rubinkingma's "Legs for q450/F450 style bottom glassfiber plate"..since these legs offer excellent support. I personally didn't have the clearance in the frame's arches to use rubinkingma's legs 'as-was', due to wiring and shrinkwrap and whatnot.. thus I redesigned the fitment to suit my own machinations. If you like a larger footprint, or want to land with style on rugged, uneven terrain.. then here you go! A lovingly frankensteined model, all glued together with some fancy Blender 'magic' to resemble a GIANT MK8 extruder. The minimalistic mk8 being the INSPIRATION of this whole piece piece really. oh, & Camera gimbals also welcome! So enough rambling.. unless you're printing... then you'll be here on Thingiverse a while.. Hope you enjoy!!
