3D Models for 3D Printing

I model and print my own fittings for kites as well as other accessories and tools. Feel free to do what you want with these models, as they fall under the WTFPL license.

Hadzicki Wing T Fitting

Description

A T fitting for a Hadzicki Wing quad line kites. Fits snuggly on heavy 1/4"ID rods (e.g. Revolution 4 wrap)

The T fitting is at an angle that matches the usual angle of the vertical spars. It includes a hole in the middle and a track for clean bridle line attachment. It is also offset from the vertical spar to provide a buffer so that leading edge landings don't break the leading edge spar.

In the Fusion 360 project, the hole sizes, and the fitting angle can be adjusted.

V2 Fitting

This is a newer version of the fitting. It makes the kite more resilient against hard landings. If you still want the old V1 fitting, details are futher down the page.

Printing Notes

I print these using Sainsmart or Oveture 95A TPU with the flat part down.


V1 Fitting

Here are files and printing notes for the old version of the T Fitting. This fitting does not have the buffer offset like V2 does, so it tends to break leading edge spars during hard landings.

Printing Notes

I print these in Sainsmart 95A TPU, upside-down with build-plate supports.
