Fly Tougher. Lug Smarter.

Uninterested in stuffing 350mAh packs into your Air65 prefer it’s 2022?

Meet the LugMount — a dead-secure, no-nonsense undercarriage mod that allows you to strap on a 450mAh or 550mAh battery with out jank, tape, or crossed fingers. Flight occasions? Over 7 minutes on 550s. (450s ought to get you there too, however uh… mine are a little bit crispy.)

Slap a Lug on it!

However, Why?!?!

I am A NOOB (bro/bruh/brother/bruther/dude)! I am new to all these FPV shenanigas, However 3D Modelling and soldering burns of despair from attempting to connect 2 million gauge wires? Recreation On!

I am previous; My beginner cardboard field goggles don’t match over my studying glasses. So purdy please, gimme a buck to compensate my spouse and her coping with my Obsessiveness ( and do not point out something in regards to the goggles! ) 😀

Disclaimer: Not accountable when you damage your drone, your self, others, your pet, my pet, your neighbors pet, youngsters, adults, human beings, non-human beings, materials objects, immaterial objects, psychological objects, imaginary objects, ghosts, ideas, imaginations, different universes, or the space-time continuum. Don’t fly locations you aren’t presupposed to (as a result of now you are gonna have the ability to fly lots longer and prolly get caught earlier than you run outta juce).

How one can use a LugMount.

1. Print it out; clear it up. If you do not have a deburring device by now, the time has arrived. In any other case would possibly as properly make your appointment to the ER for slicing your hand proper now.
2. Flip the mannequin the wrong way up and slide the latch beneath the Air65 battery bay, The loop facet goes on the left… or perhaps the proper? Ah, you will determine it out.
3. Align the LugMount with the battery braces going through in the direction of the again. the indention within the center ought to match snugly the place the battery goes.
4. Place the latch hook within the LugMount’s hinge, and utilizing pliers whereas holding the LugMount, pull the Latch out and down till it “clicks”.
5. Cost batteries. Contact Grass (perhaps). Go Fly.

“My Battery wires do not attain! Assist!”

The trick is to ‘reroute’ the wires via the body the place it goes via USB. This implies you again the wires from their authentic location, only for a couple of millimeters of slack. I can not inform you precisely the right way to get there, however listed below are some suggestions:
– Unscrew EVERYTHING. Unscrew the motors. Unscrew the FC. Give your self as a lot slack as you may to push the BT2.0 across the Air65 body – or remorse your poor life selections. You have been warned.
– Whether it is near becoming via a gap within the body, attempt pulling a little bit as an alternative of pushing. Wiggling it helps typically too (do not learn into this).

Printing Settings.

• Uh.. Print it fastidiously. We’re making one thing actually tiny and a few components are fractions of millimeters.
• Be certain your printer is dialed in. This isn’t the time to be working your ‘Benchy SpeedBoatRace’ settings – though now… surprise what that will appear like. Anywho

What else would you like me to say right here? Do folks truly comply with printing options? I am going to inform you what my normal settings are.

• PETG
• 4 Layer Backside / High / Partitions
• 5% infill (though 100% works in fact)
• SLOW IS SMOOTH; SMOOTH IS FAST.
• I run max 120-130mm/s (looks like the worst place to say this …)
• Or simply YOLO it; no matter. At this level when you’re getting issues from web sites to obtain and print, it is a fairly good guess you know the way to make a print work out.

However, hey, don’t be concerned. YOU GOT THIS. 🙂
