I 3D Printed My Helicopter Flight Controls | Basement Kit Helicopter Ep. 23

In this video, I design and 3D print full-scale mockups of nearly every major cockpit component in my experimental helicopter — including the instrument panel, cyclic joystick, collective mount, rudder pedals, and seat mount. These parts are not flight hardware. They’re used as design mockups, fit-check parts, and master patterns for making composite molds. 3D printing lets me iterate quickly, validate ergonomics, and work through geometry and packaging issues before committing to permanent composite parts. You’ll see how many versions it took to get the fit and feel right, why some designs failed, and how each iteration improved the final result. This is less about “can you fly a 3D printed part” and more about using modern tools intelligently in an experimental aircraft build. If you’re into experimental aviation, CAD, composites, or engineering projects where iteration matters, you’re in the right place.
