Three designs of a micro quadrocopter for garden und park racing and learning to fly.
The frame size is (rotor to rotor) 68 mm x 68 mm and 78 mm x 68 mm. The version 78x68 is a little bit easier to fly for beginners, but some bit heavier.
I designed these frames because I was tired of buying carbon frames, defective cameras or antennas and other spare parts after every crash. Even though they are a little bit less lightweight than carbon frames, the quads are flying good and the frame is easy to print and replaceable.
The L3GO-Version is for my little daughters. They fly without camera but with their favorite characters Olivia and Emma from Lego Friends as pilot and passenger.:-)
Some advantages to some other designs I tried:
- The camera has a housing and is more protected in case of a crash.
- The frame top protects receiver and flight controller
- The flight controller is held in place on the frame by small clips and has not to be glued.
- Antenna guards lead the wires downwards and help to protect the RX-antenna against getting catched in the rotors.
- The LED-Strip is fixed with screws (no lost rubber bands anymore).
- The LiPo can be mounted on the bottom or the top.
- Enough space for a 9 mm extra load beeper.
The assembly is quite easy. See the pictures and video description.
For assembly I designed a tool to press the motors in the frame. They must fit very tight otherwise they get loose. Put the motor in the tool and then press it in the frame with connectors downwards. Take care not to cut the cables.
