🔗 Link to the follow-up video which outlines more improvements to the design and the additional of bi-blades alongside the tri-blades:

🔗 Link to the Printables and Thingiverse thing/part/doodad (FYI, Thingiverse sometimes corrupts the zip file, so download individual STLs if you need to):

🔗 Also, link to my next generation design which tries to improve upon this one in terms of blade angle and overall thickness:

🔗 Additionally, created a bi-blade design, closer to MIT's final presented design, but not exact:

🔗 Brave souls who printed, tested and even flew with the original design:

@Maxbl4 7" Acro test hover: https://youtu.be/kbPQkepguH0
@willitmod Cinewhoop flight: https://youtu.be/TvM8Fm4odqE

So far I've got sizes ranging from 40mm, 2" up to 4" but they're all just scaled versions of the original 3.5" so they won't be ideal. Also, I've never done t-mount stuff and of course I can't test anything 'till I get back to my printer so who knows if it'll work. Remember, it's a work in progress and I can't test it for another couple weeks so I'm kinda' flying blind here 😅
