!!! New version of this frame is here [PicklePick available in 65mm and 3 inch](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3857976) !!! You need a pod canopy for your build? [PicklePod v1](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3499430) or [PicklePod2](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3944156) If you like my work, please consider following/subscribing to my feeds: [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/ledrone.club/) and [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/c/ledroneclub) ------ The Pickle frame is inspired by Kabab FPV's idea of the Toothpick build. It's an ultralight micro frame intended to fit brushless motors, 65mm bi-blade props, and whoop-style AIO electronics. The goal is to build a very light quad that will be very agile and provide good flight time. Over time, the Pickle has become a quite popular DIYer frame with some unique key features: * Dual motor mount fitting 3-hole and 4-hole 110x motors * A cutout for usb port allowing you to mount the FC board in its normal orientation * Deadcat and stretchX variants, with or without Twist Lock mount system And of course: * 16x16 mm and whoop (26x26 mm) mount patterns * Around 5.5g weight <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jn3TrlY8Kho" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> NEW: Uploaded a trueX V2 frame that has moth/squirrel design, providing clearance for AIO boards with connectors. It should make the frame more solid and stiff as well. All frames V1 and V2 are updated with the following things: * 3 versions of the frames for convenience, the 3-hole ones being the lightest * Universal 9mm (like the old frames): fits 9mm 3 and 4-hole motors (8.5mm will fit as well as Betafpv ones) * 3 HOLE: fits 3-holes motors only from 6.6mm to 9mm mounts. For instance, it fits Happymodel ones as well as AmaxInno 110x as well. * 4 HOLE: fits 4-hole motors * 102 mm wheel base (was 98) --- There are a lot of versions now, so here's a quick tour of what you'll find here: **Pickle_65mm_trueX_V2 = X frame, from 5 to 6g (3hole, 4 hole, universal 9mm)** **Pickle_65mm_trueX_V1 = X frame, the lightest version at 5.4g approx (3hole, 4 hole, universal 9mm)** **Pickle_65mm_trueX_TL = X frame with twist lock mount** **Pickle_65mm_stretchX = Stretched X frame, 6g approx** **Pickle_65mm_deadcat = Deadcat frame with twist lock mount** **Pickle_65mm_deadcat_TL = Deadcat frame with twist lock mount** If you want to use Happymodel motors, use the 3-hole version of the v1 or v2 frame.
