Mini drone frame mod for Hubsan x4 h107

thingiverse

This is the first version of my custom drone frame. I've scrounged up parts from busted Hubsan x4 H107 clones, using their electronics and engines. The frame holds together well enough to withstand regular flying, but I haven't put it through a crash test yet. It's pretty lightweight and compact, so it can't be too robust while still being flyable. The frame is set up for use with a rubber-mounted custom lipo battery. I printed it out using PLA on my Anycubic I3 Mega with some basic settings. One drawback is that you have to add support structures in the slicer, but I'm working on version 2, which will be designed with a 60-degree overhang without any support structure needed. If you want to give v1 a try, I've got a little tip for you... Use a soldering station tip to melt off the stuck support structures from the frame arms' middle elements. And just so you know, the model is printed upside-down, designed to be printed with minimal support.
