7.27 Modified the model to reduce weight and improve reliability, using an odd-numbered structure, which seems beneficial for wind tunnel aerodynamics

The truly playable badminton shuttlecock is here~
I often see nylon badminton shuttlecocks, which are quite durable. I tried printing a badminton shuttlecock using TPU, referencing the dimensions and weight of a standard badminton shuttlecock, and finally achieved a weight of about 8 grams. A standard badminton shuttlecock is around 5 grams, which is already very close to the limit.

Under wind tunnel testing, the shuttlecock can generate spin to stabilize its trajectory
To ensure appropriate weight, do not modify other parameters besides material parameters~ and do not add extra supports
I placed a support model; after printing, cut off this cylinder and the 'runner' above it
