ELF98 Light 1mm top and 2mm bottom plates for DYS Elf Electronics
Item List
Description
This kit includes aThis is designed for use with the 3d printed canopy pictured, you can find it here : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2496691 There are 1mm thick and 1.5mm thick canopies available. I printed my 1.5mm thick one in red TPU, but something like nylon might be best being stiffer. The Elf micro cam wedges up in the canopy, and can be secured with double sided tape or hot melt glue. You can get about 35 degrees of tilt with this setup.
The frame requires 2mm screws and standoffs to complete
I used from bottom to top :
- 5 x m2 x 12mm long countersunk screws through the bottom frame to hold the bottom standoffs on
- 5 x m2 3.5mm long nylon standoffs on the bottom (up to 5mm will be ok)
- Fit the fc preferably with originial rubber grommets. I broke a few and use silicone wire sheath cut from 18awg wire, but it may be just fine without.
- 5 x m2 8mm long nylon standoffs on top of the fc
- Fit the Top plate
- Fit the 3d printed canopy if used
- Screw down with 5 x m2 x 6mm long screws
Job done!!
Additional Information
I have yet to test this version. The frame pictured is using a 2mm top plate and 2.5mm bottom plate which flies great, but I'm keen to save some more weight running the 1102 motors.
Running 1104 motors, I suggest going with the 3mm bottom plate version.
