Flare Holder (QUASS)

New file added, printed on it's side.
Update:
8-23-2015
I just tried to test print this, the fingers were too thin and started to wobble during the print....probably not so much a problem for SLA but for FDM printing, I'm working on adding support to the original file and reorienting it. Should be able to get it to work, stay tuned.
_______________________________________________________
This is just a quick spin off for the QUASS I developed previously, the QUASS stands for Quick Attachment Support System, which is a 3dprintable quick connection system I developed for this challenge which allows you to attach different accessories to the quad/mav/uav quickly.
In this case, it's a simple flare holder that will accept flares or smoke devices from 1-2" in diameter, no moving parts involved. The 3DPcentric design holds the flares in using the tensile force of the ABS plastic and expands in size to accommodate larger diameter flares. This design could not be made any other way beside 3DPrinting.
The idea was that flares are not going away anytime soon as compared to other light technology, they're inexpensive, last a long time, and very lightweight (which is important in this case) as opposed to a flashlight that requires heavy batteries. A Mav equipped with this flare system will give off a lot light, using GPS, it could be set to loiter very high up while emergency crews do their work. It could be navigated into area's that would normally be difficult to reach such as crevasses, caves, forested areas. Best of all though, it's mobile so the light source can be changed at any time with ease thanks to "drone" technology.
Here is a previous related entry, which uses the QUASS:

*note:
Any .stl file with "3DPR" in the title means that it has been saved with the integrated support material designed into it, so it's ready to be run through net fab and slicing. Essentially it's the main 3D printing file that should be used.
