Description

a simple frame body for a small quadrotor, designed around ~1/2" square towel bar and the KK flight control board.

You should be able to print and fly in the same day!

Instructions

the towel bar I used is about 16mm wide - I included the OpenSCAD source so you can tweak it to your needs.

Hardware is #6-32 nuts and flathead bolts for arms/frame and #4-40 for the control board. Use velcro straps in the slots to secure the battery.

What sized motors is this for, and what is the final weight?

I had some 1500rpm/V motors, so that's what I used on this build. Probably too fast for a quad though. 18A ESC's and a 7.4v 1250mah battery - and it weighs in at 645g.
