  • Need a 3D Printing specialist

    Hi. I’m looking at building a scale Apache helicopter Either an indyhelis (yes I can get my hands on a kit) or possibly the Roban although it’s about a foot shorter. Thing is that I would really love to have one of the scale rotor heads for it from indyhelis but I can’t find one. I was thinking that with all the talented 3D printing artists out there that someone could come up with a way to make a two piece section that looks like the area circled to screw together over the each arm of the stock rotor blade. I would send the rotor head to said individual to get measurements and then let you work your magic. Would obviously compensate for time although I think there could be a market for selling them.
    Would also like to have printed this top unit (in the next pic) or maybe even the radar dome?
    any thoughts or anyone know of someone who might take up the challenge?

        A few of those parts are available here: https://www.fine-scalemodela.com/17-...che-vario.html. For the blade grips, you might consider contacting them about custom making them, or contacting realmodelpilots. I have used both for custom 3D printed work before.
