I've been testing these too and let me tell you that they are very nice! 

Feels very light and sturdy. these ones will not crack compared to the "plastic" ones (but they are more expensive... so far I cannot see any fatigue or stress on the washers or any parts.  I really like them! 

Very well done Jani! I know it took quite some time to get there and how perfectionist you are.  But this is finally available!  (yes I will stock them also in CanadaDrones inventory) 

Again Nice work Jani and Max I already told you but I really like the illustration!

Nice job looks good.

I would say that there is need for 13x13 square tubes as thay are very common, price is a bit high. 

Comment by sergei lupashin on June 4, 2012 at 7:51am

Nice. Suggestion: get rid of the nuts/washers and use tapped holes on the motor X-adapter. Also I suspect you have a possible bolts-vibrating-out problem since you can't really tighten them without making the grommets obsolete. Fun fun.

I can't see a hole in the middle. So how do you mount there common outrunners which has shaft on one side and propeller mounting attached on the opposite side?

Tsahi, you should able to use those on 13mm arms too as. 

Sergei, nope. You can tighten screws tight as there is lock insert inside grommets. Insert won't allow you to crush your grommets.

Nice work Jani, Square and round! Best all around universal mount I have seen yet.  

Comment by Vernon Barry on June 4, 2012 at 9:05am

@Marooned, you use the inlcuded mount with the hole that came with the motor, and then that attaches to this mount. Hopefully you saved those parts that came in the bag with every motor.

Comment by Marooned on June 4, 2012 at 9:39am

Ok, maybe I'm missing something but can't image how to mount a motor like that. Anyway, the design is beautiful. Good job :)

Now if I could just order more of the x adapters. I bent all mine and therefore bolted the can to the arm..

I'm looking for x adapters for the "heavy" motors sold on the various drones sites. 2836/9 880kv.

any chance you could make square plates that I could just bolt the motor to and then bolt to this. the alu x is very bendable.
