- Self adjusting to wind direction (Tail Blade Reworked)
- 100% printed, no Screws or tools needed
- You can add 3 Propellers on one Axle with 2 distances
- Full customizable with different propeller sizes and directions (I plan to add more cool propeller types as well)
- Rods are stack able to your needed height
Printing:
You can choose Propellers from 3 Print Profiles
- Basic Parts with Left& Right Propeller to choose
- Additional Propeller Blades
- Additional Slower Propeller *New
You can mix the propellers from these profiles.
- added one profile for A1mini without the biggest blade as well
The rod could be a bit difficult to print, i added custom support, but clean your buildplate and apply some glue.
PETG & PLA tested👍🏼
Assembly:
Info:
- Added custom support to the horizontal printing rod
- Added optional longer axle for more distance between propellers (10mm instead of 5mm). With stronger wind the bigger blades should not collide.

- Big - Pitch 195mm
- Med - Pitch 170mm
- Small - Pitch 135mm
Additional Propeller Blades with different numbers of Wings:
- Big - Pitch 190mm
