DIY Micro Quadcopter Gates

[wafflejock]

Made some gates out of strips of wood and EL wire (3d printed little clips to hold them up but some tape and wood or cardboard would do the job too).

Are those gates or ornaments?

I don't really do holiday decorations so this is probably as close as it'll get in my apartment

Hopefully I get to fly them soon been too busy with building a MK3 kit (3d printer) and now using that to rebuild my old MK1 clone machine (using an AM8 frame) and working on an MPCNC, just too many plates in the air right now.

Haha me too! I've just crossed over to the dark side and ordered a fixed-wing

They look like Xmas decorations.
Hang em on the tree & race round it.
Cheapest option I can think of is McDonald's straws, you could get the same shapes. & light protected inside.
But they are cool.
