Drone Puzzle

This CAD model was designed by Oskar van Deventer, copyright (c), 18 October 2025, 9 April 2012.

Drone Puzzle was commissioned by a customer that is active with drones. They were looking for a special puzzle gift that was drone-themed. So I dusted off this old geared-puzzle design of mine, and turned it into a very non-functional drone. The goal is to get all four wings on top of each other, and then get the coin out. This is difficult because of the gearing mechanism, as well as some tricks with the gearing ratios.
