King Cobra tricopter base

[peddiparth]

I tried to modify the tricopter base to make it a bit wider.
It just looked to me like a king cobra, hence its name.

I updated the front battery/camera mounts for metal wire.

Any suggestions on what I can/should change in this design?

I'm not sure...
Where do the front arms mount? It looks like they are swept back?

This is a quick rendering of where the front arms are mounted.
I tried to get close to 120 degree angle as possible.

This is the previous tricopter base involved in a 50ft crash next to the new design.

Ahh, ok. I see how they mount now. Looks like the ticket! What are you using for the print?
