Danke an LegoRJ35 und strikingfpv für die Toroidal-Propeller. Habe daraus Windräder mit 200 und 250 mm Durchmesser und einer Nabe für Kugellager 608ZZ (22x8x7) mit schönem Illusionseffekt gemacht. Es gibt 12 verschiedene Windräder mit 3, 4 und 6-fach Toroidal-Form. Es gibt 4 verschiedene Achsen, passend für einen 8, 10,12 oder 15 mm Stab, Es gibt 5 verschiedene Deckel. Mit NabeTest kann man den Lagersitz der Windräder mit Skalierung in X und Y anpassen. Man kann an der Achse mit einer M8-Gewindestange und M8-Muttern ein Windrad, zwei gegenläufige Windräder (L+R), unterschiedlich große Windräder, 3x 4x 6x Toroidal-Windräder montieren. Den Labyrinthring habe ich nach der Lagermontage am Windrad mit CA geklebt. Benötigt werden: 2x Kugellager 608ZZ für die Windräder 1x Edelstahl-Gewindestange …
