Hey all, I'd like to share some parts I designed while modding my Rapidstrike. All of these are released Creative Commons 4.0 Noncommercial Attribution Share-Alike.

 

Editable models and installation instructions are hosted on Thingiverse. I've attached STL files to this post for convenience, but I recommend visiting Thingiverse as well.

 

Pusher Motor Cover and Nameplate

 

If you upgraded your pusher to use a 180 motor, this cover plate prevents shorts while still allowing ventilation. It also neatly covers the Rapidstrike logo so you can pimp your blaster.

Dual OLED Screen Bracket

 

Replace your Rapidstrike's sling loop and rear sight with TWO OLED screens. If your sick gaming rig needs two monitors, so does your sick blasting rig.

Butt Plate

 

If you removed your Rapidstrike's stock, you now have a gaping hole. Install this butt plate and now you don't. I included two versions - one has a cutout for a battery connector or a USB port, the other is solid.

Thanks for viewing, and good luck with your Rapidstrike modding.

Maybe you could modify the rear cover plate so it could be glued to or replaced the shell insert for the stock.

The screen bracket is amazing and I want one. What size oled does it hold and would you be willing to adjust it to hold a single oled on the top and a 3 piece segment 7 as the bottom.

Hmm, well my previous question practically answered itself!

Nice color, it's not really elite, but manages to fit well on the Rapidstrike color scheme

Totally agree, that is the most elegant way to attach the butt plate. My mod needed that dead space to hold a microcontroller, but if I built a production version of the mod, I'd combine the butt plate and stock retainer doohickey into one piece.

The brackets hold the four-pin SSD1306 breakout board, which is also sold as an SH1106. Adafruit's SSD1306 breakout is wider and won't fit. Here's an example of the display board, but you can find a lot of clones from a lot of other suppliers.

Yeah, I needed to use the ABS filament at my hackerspace, and this is the closest I could find. If you print these parts, I'd recommend buying orange filament, because it's pretty close to the stock colorscheme.

Oh ok i see how you did it now.

 

Mind if I download the double display file and modify it for my own use?

Absolutely. Just remember the Creative Commons license - if you share the STL online, you need to include your model as well.

[DjOnslaught]

Oh I will include yours or a link to it as well if I do. Afterall your design inspired mine, why not let them see both
