Looking for STL file for 65150 FR prop fairing

What kind of profile do your blades have?
Looks like uniform extrusion. Along the axis they should have an asymmetric (air)foil profile.
The FR definitely has an (air)foil profile, hence the different thickness of middle and sides.

These are just flat. My Fusion skills aren’t that advanced yet haha. I would love to learn how to make an airfoil profile on the blades though.

11

For Fusion there is a NACA Airfoil Generator. By using this, you can first model the middle section of the blade and then sweep it a long a given path on the hub (to get the pitch) together with a guidance line (for the radial dimension variation).

Very cool. Thanks for sharing

Can you help me with sending the stl file for ducts. This should fit the flipsky motor, correct.

14

Follow the link posted above. The STL files are available in that thread. Yes. They will work on the Flipsky motor

Hi @michion.

Looks like you designed these for a thrust bearing. A thrust bearing would help the motor bearings last a bit longer. Can you provide a link to the bearings that fit this? You mentioned ceramic vs stainless bearing too?

Thank you!

It seams like my Flipsky 65161 motor is not the same as the Reacher motor?

I printed the @michion fairing and the outer diameter, and the screw holes line up, but the inside diameter hits the cone on the motor. Lacks about 7mm from going all the way on.

The bearing size is 51101, 12x26x9mm.

Link to one here. I got them off aliexpress for half the price of these ones but the supplier seems to have disappeared.

I put a 45 degree bevel on the inside when designing it. Only had the reacher tech motor so had a bit of a guess for the Flipsky. Looks like it needed a deeper bevel to fit the Flipsky. That would of messed with the thread for the Reacher tech anyway so I wouldnt of allowed for it.

Thank you!

No worries. For now I just made this one fit. :call_me_hand:

22

This STL does not fit the Flipsky motor…

23

Yea. I had to modify it as depicted above. I’m terribly slow with fusion 360, so this was faster for now. I will post the modified STL if and when I get around to it.

But, it’s not hard to make fit. Took me all of 10 minutes.

:call_me_hand:

24

Ok thanks- I’m modifying mine now… looking forward to the new print. :sunglasses:

Did you ever get round to doing this for the maytech 12mm shaft?
Im about to reprint one in PC max, wondered if i still have to modify this with my dremel?

26

@michion edited the two files. I’ll have to look for the post.

…here you go!

Thanks again Michion!

Hello
Do you have the “360 fusion” file for the Flipsky 65161 motor duct, thank you
