5 years ago I build a quadcopter using exact same motors. I even also designed a frame on 3mm acrylic sheet which is cut using CO2 laser. I even use electrical tapes, and cable ties to held it together. Then, i fly it using turnigy controller and crashed it immidiatelly. That was my first quadcopter build. I saved a money from a school pocket money to buy the cheapest components. I also watched Flitetest on how to build it. I am having fun on those days and I am quite proud of it.

Interesting. I have been considering cutting a 2.5 inch frame from 1/8 inch LEXAN plastic. The stuff is crystal clear and pretty strong. It is stronger and less brittle than Acrylic plastic. Plus, LEXAN is available in different thicknesses. Yeah, Botgrinder cut a clear yellow acrylic frame that busted into pieces on first crash. Although some AIOs are rated for 55A and even 60A, I don't think that 16x16 stack is rated that high.

@C-V-Z 3 ай бұрын

I gotta say, the top plate breaking is really just your fault for putting too much force on it. This is clearly not a quad that's built for bando bashing, and it's probably not intended to be crashed much either, so you really don't need to strap the battery down that hard.

Hand on a second guys... AIO VTX actually seems smart. Remove ALL vtx chips and OSD chips from the FC and just have the camera handle it all. use passthrough to flash the camera and OSD settings. So many of the FCs I want I pass over because they all have analog VTX built in. Don't need it don't want it! I want the rest of your FC!
