How I Designed This

Wingtips

            <div><p>Just sand down or cut off rounded part of the original wingtip to make it flat and glue LED's and cover. </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/54/55/b8/c0/44/PC292062.JPG"></p>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/b7/d3/1f/f1/b0/PC292063.JPG"></p>                <p class="detail-title"><strong>Tail</strong></p>            <div><p>Since it's flat, there's not much to do. Just glue LED and cover in place.</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/a9/c2/7c/9a/d8/PC312074.JPG"></p>                <p class="detail-title"><strong>Top and bottom beacons</strong></p>            <div><p>Both contain two pieces - body and cap. Caps are interchangeable since both covers have same diameter. </p><p>SW_motor_mount contain rounded cap and body with concave bottom and small notch for cables to avoid any drilling in motor tower.</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/bb/eb/df/ff/7f/SW_beacon_parts_1.JPG"></p>                <div><p>Glue cap to the body </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/e8/03/38/1f/ff/SW_beacon_parts_glued.JPG"></p>                <div><p>Remove one pair of legs from SuperFlux LED (one form anode, one from cathode) </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/0f/5c/a8/f2/90/SW_beacon_LED.JPG"></p>                <div><p>Bend another pair and solder some thin wires </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/a5/0d/87/31/4d/SW_beacon_LED_cables.JPG"></p>                <div><p>Put LED inside the cover</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/f4/d7/6c/5c/9a/SW_beacon_LED_cabes_body.JPG"></p>                <div><p>Glue everything to the top of the motor tower. Hot glue, CA, double sided tape - Your choice.</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/de/d4/c7/99/38/SW_beacon_LED_bright.JPG"></p>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/f0/3b/a4/5f/81/SW_beacon_LED_mounted.JPG"></p>                <div><p>SW_belly contain flat cap and body with flat bottom. </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/89/96/71/ff/f6/SW_beacon_parts_2.JPG"></p>                <div><p>It was designed for those who do not use landing gear. Just make small cavity to make the cover (body+cap) flush with the bottom of the fuse and cut small hole for cables.</p><p>Those who have landing gear might want to print SW_belly body since it has flat bottom and glues to fuse better and SW_motor_tower cap because rounded top is nicer :-)</p></div>
