This is an upper and lower brace to better secure the front retract and its housing on the Freewing Mig 29. Bill of materials:Top plate (from this thingRetract plate (from this thing)4-40 allthread (12in should be sufficient)4-40 locknuts (x8)The parts should be printed at relatively high infill for maximum strength.Basic installation instructions (you'll figure it out!):Remove middle battery tray with 4 screws. Those screws are no longer needed.Remove second piece of plywood from battery area, which is secured to the retract housing with two screws. It's glued to the foam so might need some gentle prying.Press 4 locknuts into the provisions made in the retract plateTest fit and measure the length of 4-40 allthread you need, cut 4 identical sections. Make them a little longer than you think you need.you will likely need to enlarge the holes in the retract mount. Then just press the rod through the foam unil it pops out the top. Make sure it goes in straight!Thread rod into the locknuts which are pressed into the retract platePlace retract plate onto retract and insert the assembly.Trim threaded rod as needed - remember you will have a battery sitting on top of this, so make sure nothing protudes above the top plate!Remove battery strap from original tray and fit it to the top plate.Place top tray into position, making sure the threaded rods align with the holes in the plate. Replace two screws from the original lower plywood traySecure locknuts into position on the threaded rod, and tighten the top plate down evenly.Grind down any excess threaded rod protuding from the upper locknuts - it's ok to have excess on the lower locknuts, so long as they dont interfere with the steering tiller.
Basic mounting plate compatible with Freewing missile pylons (was specifically designed for the Freewing 80mm MiG-29).V3 set is tuned for better tab fit, flush surface
I scaled and modified this from Dirty Dee (Chris Garca)'s design for the Freewing MiG 29, and I added a mounting rail and lug to fit the ArrowsRC wing. It is in several parts for ease of printing.I printed with 5% infill except for the lug, which needs to be solid. Print as light as possible if you intend to fly with it.
This is a Russian R-73e heat seeking air 2 air missle and weapons pylon in 1/9 scale. They are suitable for the Freewing MIG-21 and MIG-29. The lower part of the missile is 240mm tall so it takes a larger printer. The missile and the pylon use the Freewing F-16 weapons mounting hardware. The MIG-21 in the photograph has a modified stock pylon that holds the fuel tank and the 3D printed one was added between that and the landing gear. I used epoxy to glue the missile parts and the attachments to the pylon.
