OpenRC Quadcopter (Beta)

youmagine

This is a first draft of an OpenRC Quadcopter. Although I have now moved on to other designs, I have invested too much time in this project not to share it with the community. Here it is, my attempt at creating a 3D printed quad that differs from traditional designs and incorporates all electronics into the design itself. My goal was to experiment with strong materials, thin walls, and low infill to minimize weight while maximizing strength. The design is centered around the DJI 450 Flamewheel electronics, which I have carefully integrated throughout the model. You may notice that I've labeled this version "Alpha," indicating that it's still a work in progress. While all components fit together as intended, there are areas where the design falls short. Hopefully, this project will inspire others to contribute their ideas and expertise, or perhaps even spark new projects altogether. If you have any thoughts or suggestions, I encourage you to share them with the OpenRC community on Google+ at https://plus.google.com/communities/112745535856143176146
