thingiverse

Overview ---------------- Here is the Bruiser230, a rugged 230mm/6" quadcopter frame designed with replaceability in mind. The arms and braces can be easily swapped out without removing the canopy, allowing you to quickly update your drone's configuration. The frame supports both 30x30 and 20x20 mounting patterns, as well as 16x16 or 19x19 motor mounting patterns. Weighing around ~100g with the frame, canopy, and screws combined, this quadcopter is designed for durability and performance.

The results led me to make some key changes, including strengthening the arm joints and adding side braces. These upgrades have significantly improved the frame's durability. Note: The included canopies are not my design, and I take no credit for them.
