Flyduino Warthox 3D printed clone

thingiverse

This quadcopter is a replica of the Flyduino Warthox, featuring a custom-printed frame that weighs less than half the original carbon fiber version. The frame was printed with 40% filling and 3 layers of wall, resulting in a lightweight yet durable design. While not as strong as carbon fiber, it is still robust enough to handle minor crashes. Test this print before purchasing the original, which costs 99 Euros. In the initial design, the arms were 6mm thick like the original Warthox frame arm, but they proved too flexible during flight. The updated version has 12mm thick arms, maintaining the same weight of 20g while offering improved strength. This quadcopter has been performing exceptionally well, surpassing the DJI x450 frame-based quad in control and stability with PI settings on KK2.0 board set to 100. Assembly requires only screws, and the following components were used: Turnigy SK3 2826 1130kv motors, Mystery 30A ESC with SimonK firmware, 4000mah 3S battery, KK2.0 board with 1.6a firmware, and 8x4.5 carbon fiber props for DJI Phantom (purchased from eBay). With all components and the printed frame, the quadcopter weighs 800 grams and offers extended fly time.
