Flex Leg for RcExplorer Tricopter
Description
I grew tired of tie wraps breaking on even a slightly bounced landing with my rcexplorer tricopter. So I developed these flex legs for the tricopter. They will work with any 10mm square tube so these legs are not limited to the tricopter, but any vehicle that uses 10mm square tubing and requires legs with some flex. The legs are amazingly tough and won't come off, yet require no tie wraps or glue to stay on. I really love these. ***Update 03-24-20*** Added a base for the 2 piece version that fits the tricopter LR ***Update 01-13-2019*** Added a two piece version which is based on the HD version. This design allows both the leg and base to be printed such that intra-layer weakness of 3D printing is immaterial to the design. No more supports, no more clean up and no more breaking either on hard landings or even when installing onto the CF tubing. I highly recommend this version over the others. ***Update 10-8-2018*** Added "hd" version which has thicker side walls where it engages the 10mm tube for more sideways strength in landings where the copter is moving forward or backward a little. If you use the hd version be sure to be extra diligent in cleaning up after the supports so it fits well to the tube. The standard wall version tolerates a little sloppier support cleanup job than the hd version
