Have a drone propeller guard that is broken? Learn how to fix it with just a 3D pen! My drone’s propeller guard was broken in multiple places and I thought that I would have to buy a new one. I fixed it with a 3D pen and it’s never looked better! I even flew my drone FULL SPEED INTO A TREE TRUNK and the repairs on the propeller guard did not break.

Supplies

You will need:

-A broken drone propeller guard

-A 3D pen

-PLA filament in a color that matches your drone propeller guard

Prep your 3D pen by turning it to the PLA setting. Insert your filament when your pen is hot, then bring over your drone. First, move the broken parts of the propeller guard so that they are in the same shape before they broke. Connect the broken parts with the 3D pen, then reinforce the connection by drawing around the crack. Make sure that you draw all around the crack including on the top and bottom so that the patch doesn’t come off when flying the drone. Repeat with other cracks.
