New Frame design

[robhho123]

Hi Guys

I';ve designed a new frame for the hubsan x4 internals + spectrum micro fpv camera

this frame has 85mm centres and locates the flight controller in dead centre position between the motors.I have designed it in a way that the fpv camera locates securely so there will be no movement and it will take a 750mah battery that is raised up above the FC on posts and fixing points to use a loom band to secure the battery. I need to do some modification to the frame drawing but I will put the file for upload so people can print it out themselves if they want.

What do people think good/bad?

Looks good. What FPV setup are you using?

looks good to me but know what you do need to print, one of these or something similar http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:645287

Sorry to say it, but those arms will snap in the first crash!

Nice idea though.

Looks really nice but the arms may be a little fragile.

You may be able to leave a channel to run a thin CF rod through to beef it up a bit.

The aerial sits lower than the props so it';s ok if landed upside down on something flat.ha

You guys must be psychic because one of them has just done that I made the stupid mistake of letting a a friend at work fly it bare in mind he';s never flown one he flew it round erratically then went up 20ft in the air and then slammed it straight into the ground.

I didn';t even get a sorry.

i';ve got another frame printing at the mo and I may try cast some out of polyurethane to give it abit of flex and strength.
