Yeah, I've had folding props explode on me before, definitely a scary moment so eye protection is a must!

The print is done but I need to fix a dimension error on my part, otherwise, it printed 1g heavier than the E-flight spinner. If it works out I'll print the final part at a higher resolution which is 0.2mm.

I just had to run this, I took it to around 75% throttle with a laser point marker; I'm happy to say it held up and didn't need balancing purely because it's so slight it's not worth the hassle. Tomorrow I'll test it at full throttle.

Printed parts for the dolly













These parts are sliders along the rail they turned out to be very low friction.
