Main gearbox frame for the dual motor contra-rotating F3P power system. Some of the photos show the frame with the two AP-03 brushless motors and the 3x6x2.5mm ball bearings for the inner shaft installed. However this item is obviously just the 3D printed frame. The motors are attached using 6pcs M1.4 self tapping screws. The bearings are a push fit, but can be secured with glue if desired. Actual weight of the printed part is 2.47g (black strong and flexible) For more info on the motor system, please see: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1390240

This mount allow you to attach a GoPro camera to the skid of a model helicopter. It has been designed for an Align T-Rex 600 Pro, but in general it should fit any skid tube with a diameter of 9mm. The mount is engineered to allow the use of standard GoPro mounting hardware and accessories. Please keep in mind that since this is a fixed mount if you have vibrations in the heli they will translate into vibrations on the image. The mount should be able to withstand basic acrobatic manoeuvres, but as you probably understand, I will not take responsibility for any loss...

Multitools seem to be following a trend of getting progressively larger and more complex. The Head Turner, on the other hand, is simple and down-to-earth. The name says it all: this tool is made to turn heads— bolts or otherwise. Tools: 5mm wide Phillips screwdriver, 5mm wide flathead screwdriver, 5mm Allen key, 4mm Allen key, 10mm wrench.

Assembly Video

NOTE: This is a kit to build a toy replica inspired by the Hidden Blade from Assassin's Creed 3. This kit is designed specifically as a con-safe cosplay prop. The end of the prop is squared-off and blunt and is therefore in no way intended to create a potentially dangerous weapon. Any modification to the design as sold is outside the recommendation and responsibility of the creator and manufacturer of this kit.

Modern style version of this kit Available Here

Moving a turbine without any interfering veins? Only using smooth discs and adhesion with the air? The Tesla Turbine, made by Nikola Tesla, was certainly a marvel in its time. But this is no ordinary Tesla Turbine, but a Perez - Tesla Turbine. The Tesla Turbine was made to be simple and elegant. Pressurized air entered through the periphery, circled about, and spiraled out of the center exit. And as it did it adhered to the smooth discs inside, pulling them and affecting rotary motion. However, the air, which had been following such a graceful path, would make a hard 90 degree turn when it exited the discs. The Perez - Tesla Turbine, available here, extends Tesla's design by using trumpet shaped discs, instead of Tesla's flat discs. This allows for an even smoother transition of the working fluid throughout the engine. The axle mount for the turbine contains a fixture so that it can be mounted to a Lego Technic axle. Just blowing into the turbine, will cause this engine to rotate, though pressurized air can be used. ** Extreme caution must be used that this turbine not be driven so hard and fast, that it will disintegrate and pose a danger of flying shards. **

The foldable Landing Gear Kit for the DJI Phantom, with room for larger gimbals, and a modular design with options for mounting FPV Tx, external battery or dual batteries, or any additonal gear required.

Designed to fit any desired length/height carbon fibre leg extensions (not included) to fit any sized gimbal or camera, and other relevant gear. The legs fold up so the Phantom is flat, and the legs also makes for great carrying handles. If using wing nuts, there is no tools needed, making this very easy to do in the field. This makes the Phantom fit perfecty in a lower case, or make more room in an existing hard case container.

You can easily mount FPV gear, external battery, dual batteries in conjunction with the landing gears modular design. Simply use some the same 6mm tube as used for the skids, and insert into the holes on each base mount for adding your additional gear. This way you can eaily mount it, and shift the location of it, and position your Center Of Gravity in the most optimal configuration for your set up.

You provide your own carbon fibre tubing, and cut to desired lengths. The diameter for the tubing is:

12mm OD for leg extensions
6mm OD for skids & compass arm


The weight for the parts included in the kit is only 33 grams.

Parts needed to complete the landing gear:

2x M4 length 35-40mm hexagonal head screw (see this picture: hexagonal-head-screw-28451-3203651.jpg)
2x M4 wing nut (regular lock nut can be used also)
9x M3 screws for fixing legs etc (optional, you can use a drop of superglue also)
A small bit of adhesive velcro tape to secure compass to mount
1 Q-tip for antenna arm


I recommend White Strong & Flexible Polished, also to paint the parts with a light coat of white paint. The parts stays clean much longer this way, but is by no means necessary.

Here are some links to where I have ordered my carbon fibre tubing on eBay: 6mm: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221216654200?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
12mm: http://www.ebay.com/itm/12MM-X-10MM-X-500MM-100-Carbon-fiber-Wing-tube-Tail-tube-Tail-boom-3K-/321110325874?pt=US_Radio_Control_Control_Line&hash=item4ac3aaba72

Disclaimer: This is a DIY kit, so some minor adjustments might be needed. I have been testing this kit for a while prior to open for sale, and it works very well.

I will make a video of the assembly, and update it here by tomorrow.

Check out my website www.simensays.com for more pics & videos of mods I have made to my Phantom.
