Extreme FPV Racing Quadcopter Design - By 3DEX

pinshape

This is a cutting-edge quadcopter frame design packed with innovative features that set it apart from the rest. The Frame This frame boasts aerodynamically designed winglets that provide exceptional directional stability, inspired by Formula 1 cars. Although the benefits may be minor, this feature makes the frame one of the most aggressive and extreme on the market, guaranteed to turn heads. However, the outer winglets also serve as a protective barrier for the motors in the event of a heavy crash, safeguarding your expensive equipment. The fuselage of this quad is engineered with protection in mind, accommodating standard flight control boards and ample space for other electronics. The entire body is encased in plastic, featuring a sliding lid that shields the crucial electronics from harm, while also adding rigidity to the frame. With a 4.5mm thick base, this frame can withstand significant punishment. Printing This frame prints seamlessly with all printers, and we successfully printed it using Yellow PLA from 3DEX. However, it would also print well in ABS or PETG, making it an excellent choice for various materials. We achieved excellent results without supports, utilizing a nozzle temperature of 190°C and a bed temperature of 70°C. To ensure maximum strength, consider increasing infill to 20% and wall thickness to twice the size of your nozzle. Despite its robust design, the overall weight of the frame remains less than that of a full carbon frame.
