Motor vibration damper / soft mount for drones by techwit

These dampers are meant to be installed between the motor and the arms of your drone to reduce the vibrations transmitted through the frame to the flight controller to make your tuning easier.
Its designed for standard 19mmx16mm hole pattern.
I know there are a few designs like this out there, but all of the ones I've found have a hole in the middle that is too small causing the circlip on my motors to touch the TPU/TPE. This isn't great for the circlip, which will cause it to wear out more quickly.
Yes soft mounts are hypey, but in my experience works extremely well. It completely got rid of the mid throttle oscillations on one of my KISS quads without any tuning effort.
It'll also let you get more life out of motors that tend to get rougher as they get older.
Print these in TPU or TPE (for best results), and don't forget to use thread locker like loctite on your motor screws, they are much more likely to back out when soft mounted.
