This tool lets you easily check your engine/propeller combinations on the table without the need for a model until you've completed the setup. You can also check the balance of your propeller adapters and propellers.
With its solid body, cable holders and bracket that you can bolt to your desk, it allows you to perform your engine tests safely. You can simply measure how many grams of thrust it provides by putting a scale on its back foot, you don't need expensive electronics for this!
It is suitable for all engine sizes, for much larger or much smaller engines you can scale the model via the Cura slicer.
A useful tool that you can use for many purposes and say how I was doing before!

The device looks quite useful. It would be nice to add compatibility with larger motors for third-party aircraft. At least up to 10″. But I will still buy this model and something else.
How big is the margin of error in thrust measurement? Thx.

Thanks for the feedback. We usually run 2205 2300Kv motors and have tested up to about 1000 g of thrust. We haven’t pushed the limits, but the frame can handle more. If you need larger setups, scaling the model to 125% or 150% makes it sturdier. A 10″ prop is also possible with smooth throttle, and I recommend 125% for safety.

Up to what size motor and blade can be tested and how much thrust can the base withstand?
Cemal OZCELIK (store manager) –
Existing design made for our PowerPacks so max Thrust about 1000 grams and Prop size 6″ 2 or 3 blades.
