3D model description

No, not another Quad copter but instead a means to stop buying fragile frames (not crash proof). Print these parts up (I color code the arms to the LED colors for the daytime orientation. The glowing "lamps" are clear ABS (translucent after printing). The arms are 60mm long 5.5mm diameter hollow carbon fiber rods CA'd or epoxied into the arm ends. Make sure they are level with each other to prevent a tilted motor from yawing the quad. The standard 200QX battery Velcro's to the top plate. Save the screws from the original body as these are used to mount the landing gear. I used wax string to tie the motor connectors / wires on both sides of the arms as a strain relief and protect the wires from being tugged and broken. This is the number one reason why the FETs on the motor controllers burnout; broken wires internal to the motor!. Finished weight printed at a 40% fill comes in almost identical to the original model. Tie wraps are used to mount the arms to the body. These are designed to fail before the body parts. There are tie wrap mounts on the bottom for FPV / camera gear if you so decide. Flies, flips, and goes inverted as good as the original.
