Title: Scratchbuilt Quad
Post by: yashodhanp on December 05, 2013, 09:03:48 PM
So I decided to make a large quad  ;D (550mm MtM)D

Got the centre plates laser cut in MDF
Arms used were 1/2" (12.7mm) aluminium square tubing.

Centre plates (2.5mm MDF)

What's left.

1. Drilling holes through the aluminium tubes for the screws
2. Adding the 3rd centre plate to guard the control board.

Specs:
MtM:550mm
Frame weight: 175gms

Setup I have chosen
1. 4x E-Max CF2812 Motors
2. HobbyWing Quattro (20A)
3. KK Multi V5.5
4. Battery to be decided later  ???

Any changes to the above setup welcome  :)
