Nano Drone (Rev 01)

thingiverse

UPDATE: after some crash testing and tweaking, I made a small change to the back arms and increased the infill. I also added some "posts" for the board to sit on securely. It was challenging to stick the board in place without it shifting and affecting the calibration. Now it's firmly mounted and held down with a tiny amount of hot glue. I created my own nano drone frame based on the Eachine QX90c hardware. You can find more information about this model here: http://www.banggood.com/Eachine-Tiny-QX90C-90mm-Micro-FPV-Racing-Quadcopter-Based-On-F3-EVO-Brushed-Flight-Controller-p-1093924.html?rmmds=search The original frame is decent, but I wanted to add some protection for the camera and prevent it from breaking. With a 3D printer, you can easily create your own custom parts. I went through several iterations of design before settling on this one, which has been field-tested successfully – not crash-tested, though! Print Settings: Printer: E3d BigBox Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.25 Infill: 15 Notes: Printed in PLA with a total weight of slightly over 8 grams (2 grams more than the original).
