Thinking over things Thought of an improvement. Some form of a lock for it so it can't be pushed down to be twisted to unlock which is the only axis the center motor shaft can't support to protect the plastic finger tab prop locks.
will need some engineering knowledge or mechanical backround to really picture what im describing. when i get home i will model up designs with Cad and have pics
First method would be a push button on the top of the guard that you could push in and twist after the cap has been twisted and locked the props. this would have a center shaft that would rest on the top of the motor center shaft. This would make the cap unable to be pushed down, locking it on. Then a twist lock tab to lock to hold down the button that is resting on the shaft to secure it. (this could also be used on the props in the form of the center nose cone, locking the props in place during flight)
Second would be a twist outer collar that would rest on top of the motor. preventing the cap from being pushed down as well. this could also have a rim that could cover the 3 vent holes on top of the motor preventing dust and debris from entering the motors while not in use. pretty simple and basic over all. and effective! |
