IMPORTANT NOTICE: Don't expect another set of electronics anytime soon, so be patient if you're looking forward to my "build with me" series. If you're new to FPV, Quads and working with electronics, it's probably best to wait until I can share more information. Some programming is also required for the radio and flight controller. If you can't wait, check out these resources about FPV before even considering this project: Joshua Bardwell on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/loraan The Blue Falcon Project on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCObMtTKitupRxbYHLlwHE3w Propwashed website: http://www.propwashed.com/ OpenRC 220 FPV Mini Quadcopter is the second quadcopter to join the OpenRC product family. It's a modular, self-supporting design that becomes strongest when all parts are in place. This 220mm size uses 5" props and aims for better impact resistance by printing parts in flexible materials like Nylon or PCTPE. The individual parts may feel too flexible on their own, but once secured with screws, they become rigid enough. Even a Co-Polyester like colorFabb HT based on Color Amphora HT5300 or Nylon filaments are well-suited for this design. Testing has shown that CF blends like colorFabb XT-CF20 or NylonX by Matterhackers can reduce weight by approximately 20%. As always, questions are best asked in the community on either Google+ or Facebook.
