Probably did it all within a couple months. It was a pretty long process despite its simple design. I had done an initial non-functional assembly of the core (no cones or shrouds etc) a couple years ago and this spring I decided to go full beans and basically rebuild/reprint all of it. It has maybe 200 print hours and lots of time with paint and some assembly. Thanks btw
@jeremiahmarin92 Thank you for the kind words. I do believe it's the largest model yet. It uses a 775-size dual shaft DC motor. The housing is longer than the motor so it has an extension shaft on one end.
@@jeremiahmarin92 I did have some success using a DC motor soft start/soft stop controller from Amazon. The down-spool is still a bit too short but I haven't revisited that issue ye.
@DakGuy05 Cool There are several methods for achieving a longer wind down. You can Add weights to the choppers. Or, of course , use capacitors Or use some PWM (pulse with modulation) circuit. If use sold one of these, how much would you charge?
Wow that looks so cool how long did it take you to make it

Ur welcome
10/12 port guy
Wait that's so cool
Awsome!
It looks larger then other models made by other people
Does it use a dc motor?

Nice!
Add super capacitors for an automatic long wind down
