TBS Source One V4 Skids

These skids are designed to keep the motor and bottom plate screws from wearing when landing or skidding over pavement. I took the original DXF file for the TBS Source One V4 (HD) arms and measured these things to fit exactly.

I printed these in ABS for increased slippiness and durability compared to TPU or PLA but I didn't really abuse them yet so test whichever filament you think will work and please report your results. I suppose PC will work best because the RotorRiot ones (from where I got the idea) are made out of that.

There are two versions: The standard ones have a hole in the middle to allow for easy access to the bell screw of motors that are built this way. The other ones don't have that center hole.

Both version fit on both the original V4 as well as the HD version arms. The latter ones are only wider closer to the body but are not different where the skids end.

Installation

To install them, simply screw your motors on placing the screws through the holes of the skids. Pay attention to using the correct screw length, these must be 1.5mm longer than without the printed skidz on.

Happy flying =)
