Great... What materials were you thinking of using?... I thought at first it would be easy enough to get the T piece cut from stainless or alloy... But there is some machining to do so maybe alloy or carbon fiber?

looking at the breakages, it seems to be a factor of two things.
1. Depth of the countersink, leaving it very thin in that area 2. Insufficient gearbox bracing. The two allow it to flex, and due the T-Piece being stiff, it is snapping along the line of the front suspension brace. I think to fully rectify the problem, you would need to beef the material up, in that area, plus give better bracing to the rear gearbox.

Yes I agree..Mine has broken in a different place to the one in the picture ... Its broken at the back where the rear part of the hinge holder is connected. The material is VERY thin here... I looked at the B4 T piece and they look to have gusseted it at that point for strength.

We could do a cad drawing of this and get them cut from 3mm aluminium, then bend them up... Just need chamfering where the gearbox sits. What do you think?

sorry, I am not a fan of alluminium, as it can tweak, be un-noticed, and cause wierd handling problems.

so it is better to have a material that will give a little, then break if you push it too far, than a material that will bend.

What do you recon would be suitable? What about duraluminium? I've seen this used on rc panes under carrages where a degree of flex is needed.

carbon fibre, a better plastic moulding... maybe even cnc'd delrin.
