Also a good source for polystyrene is disposable dinner plates - some cool colors available too. Check for the recycling emblem #6

Chris..,dude 200% epic! Thanks so much for sharing this excellent how to video. I just watched the whole video from beginning to end and I think I'm seriously about to just watch the whole process again. Definitely liked and definitely subscribed. Keep up the good work.

[@sharkbytefpv4326]

This was the best tutorial/demonstration on this topic I ever saw. Thank you!

[@caujka]

Blimey, that's an awesome awesomeness method! Definitely a good candidate for a weekend project with kids. Looks very approachable, and the result is very attractive. Thanks for sharing!

[@eag11e]

Your videos make this hobby FUN!!! Thanks Chris

[@cojunudo86]

Awesome work! Love to see the camera swap you mentioned from the last vid. please do an episode on that. 👍

[@dazzlekernow1408]

As im watching this episode my whoop camera/vtx has just come through the post. Thanks Chris on it now.

[@ThePhytone]

Learnt a fair amount just watching... Now will have to try... Thanks Chris.

[@Mulder8472]

i always thought you were just a HK saleman. you are much more than that, congratulations on making the switch, thumbs up!

[@100epic4]

Thanks...Lol, ya I did the videos because English was my primary language, but my main job was to developed products for HK. I own a CNC and manufacturing company in the USA

[@scottthompson2481]

Just found this channel and Loving it Chris .....

[@WKfpv]

I'm loving this channel. Great job Chris!

[@dalturbo123]

THANKS Chris! I've been waiting for this!

[@TheL8P]

Plant a seed, grow the mind. Thanks for the class!

[@hiwayM9]

A 2in section of CPVC pipe, inside the box and standing up on edge meeting the box lid top where vacuum holes are will provide a cheap and easy support to prevent the box from collapsing.

[@Phiqtional]

Subscribed! You're awesome man. Wishing you success in the near future.

[@rayikaikin]

very informative video you could have glanced over the vacuum mold but you took time to explain it very clearly thanks! great video

[@VAP0RCL0UD79]

sku# of the k&s plastic?

[@mbhuff05]

Nice video, Chris! Have you posted the solidworks part file anywhere? I'm using a slightly different camera and I'd like to check the models before I print. Maybe I'll add a fin as you suggested. I suppose I could use feature recognition on the mold stl but it's nice to have the original features. Thanks!

[@TheMsvmsv]

would a hair dryer do the job?

[@dingr]

Great to see your new presence after Hong Kong & HobbyKing! I was wondering where you disappeared to. Good luck!

[@tahosrfr]

Great Job, subscribed. Btw did you see the 3d printed vacuum box on Thingiverse?

[@_NFE]

Guys, use a white milk jug, antifreeze jug, or oil quart container if you can't find actual vacuum forming sheets online. They are all HDPE & that works great for this too!!

[@TheTraumaFactor]

I can't find 0.4mm plastic online or amazon.

[@goramiir]

Looks awesome, I don't have a 3d printer but I have a CNC and I'm going to mill a mold out of abs. Thanks for the video.

[@gam3garage]

This is awesome. Just ordered the mold. Thanks very much!

[@mmartinez257]

Might be an odd question but instead of the 3D printer, can you use molded clay that's been hardened? Not really trying to buy a 3D printer. Have no need for it.

[@TheTraumaFactor]

Dude, you're awesome. You definately earned a sub from me. What size hoop is that?

[@TheCuri]

finally the next episode :) thanks sooooooo much

[@Rcgliderboy]

Hi Chris, Great job on the video and the mullet mod design. Can you please clarify the thickness of Styrene you used to form the canopy? I know you said .4 but wasn't sure if that was metric: 0.4mm or imperial: 0.040 inches?

[@rynoracer]

wow awesome video mate. Doubt I'm that patient to do it but I just had to watch the whole thing anyway. Very well done. sub'd.

[@bokfpv]

Post the material list, please!

[@liamholding8332]

would you be willing to sell a few of these?

[@plewisto]

Can we buy the canopy from you? I don't have all that manufacturing gear.

[@JBeeFPV]

Definitely going to try this!! Awesome, thanks a lot!

[@christopherlee3045]

who gives this video a thumbs down? to complicated for you people to follow? good job!

[@guetux]

Nice hair CG effect :)

[@dabooge]

Nice! I really should get myself a 3d printer. You should always design a minimum of 3 deg draft angle in the pattern, you won't need mold release.

[@100epic4]

Yep, but PLA has a low melt point i just wanted to make sure there was no heat sticking. worked great.

[@dabooge]

I believe PLA melts at 350F you shouldn't have any issues for a few pulls as the mold will never get hot enough.

[@IamTreken]

Went by a hobby store but couldn't find this plastic sheeting. Where else can I get it from?

[@dabooge]

Search your for a local industrial plastic sheet supplier in your yellow pages. You don't want to buy it from a hobby shop. Kydex is the best for impact resistance. Lexan is good but needs to be predried PETG is also nice to vacuform as you don't need to dry the sheet. Poly Styrene is easy and probably the cheapest but not that tough

[@SuperBell82]

thank Chris, Will get it printed tonight

[@troyd-motorsport9933]

Sweet video thanks. Your the dude who used to work for Hobby King right? I didn't know HK sold the tinywhoop

[@chrisprelot7835]

awesome work!! thank you very much I really like the way you going beyond any others 1000's same DYI build you really DESIGN! and share

[@prestonfisher007]

What 3D printer are you using to print your parts?

[@vondammit]

Hey Chris, how did you mount the camera and vtx? Double sided tape?

[@100epic4]

Yes since the vtx is now parral to the fc just a small patch or double sided work great and then i used a dab of hot glue on the two corners of the can to the vtx at about a 15 DEG angle. works like a champ

[@vondammit]

Awesome, thanks! Sounds like a plan =]

[@irishobo977]

Excellent video! Thank you for explaining how to do this.

[@tomhawk3424]

I don't get it, what type of plastic this is. Can you post a link?

[@100epic4]

polystyrene sheets .4mm, you can also use PP or lexan.. if you don't mind clear you can even use a 2liter soda bottle just cut it up, but it takes a little more heat.

[@tomhawk3424]

Thanks!

[@Josh_8300]

Can you share the stl file?

[@100epic4]

Its on thingverse for a free download

[@Josh_8300]
