Here's my new (almost) indestructible FPV Quadcopter.Once the props have been taken off (prop savers.) It fits in a bag which is 43cm x 38cm. This is well padded and fits my quad, fpv gear, inc goggles, spare props and the gopro. This then straps to the back of my rucksack which holds a few tools, batteries and my DX6i.
The Quadcopter itself is made from 2 pieces of perspex which are 14x14cm. The booms are 1cm square alluminium tubes and are cut to 14cm in length. these are then bolted to the center boards using two bolts. The motor mounts are old ones which I hade from a previous quadcopter however they could easily be made from plywood. They are 2 sheets which are clamped together around the booms using 4 bolts. My KK2 board is then attached using 4 bolts coming up through the frame in the center and then more nylon standoffs are used to attach the board. My fpv camera up front is mounted using a metal bolt to prevent it from snapping off in a small crash. The esc's are mounted in the corners off the perspex frame which prevents them from being damaged. I've had quite a few big hits with this frame and so far all I've broken is the props. I love the small size because of it's portability and ability to fit through some very tight gaps.
