The Calimero HD

thingiverse

About the Design ================ The Calimero HD is a toothpick-style frame that fits a Caddx Turtle V2 and provides high-definition footage in an incredibly small package. However, there's added weight compared to a regular toothpick setup (around 12g). To compensate for this, I use lighter 300mah Turnigy Nano Lipos (16.6g) instead of e.g. Tattu 450mah (29.6g). The AUW stays pretty much the same (76g), and although you lose some flight time, the quad still has most of those great flight characteristics of a regular toothpick. This is still a work in progress, so please let me know what you think and share your builds and ideas! Shopping list to build a Calimero HD ================================ - **FC+ESC:** [Crazybee F4 pro](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/8JvrrK6KV) Update: Please don't get the board with the integrated receiver. It's horribly unreliable and has the worst range I have ever seen. Get the [r-xsr](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/GGG3FD7iSk) if you run FrSky or any other small RX that fits your radio. Btw, you can hook up an external receiver even to the Carzybee with the integrated RX. To protect the 5V regulator and have a cleaner power supply, I soldered a 1000uf 10V Elko to the XT-30 connector, and I had no issues at all after at least 60-70 packs. The [GEPRC 12A](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/vv3KtyEpbF) looks really promising too! It's supposed to be 4S capable and 12A enough by a huge margin! I have ordered one that I will hopefully be testing soon. - **Camera:** [Caddx Turtle V2](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/D33Grl7p9K) - **Motors:** [Amax 1103 7500kV](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/G3DDpp34m6) - **Budget Motor Option:** [Racerstar 1103 8000kV](https://www.banggood.com/Racerstar-Racing-Edition-1103-BR1103B-8000KV-10000KV-1-3S-Brushless-Motor-Black-For-50-80-100-Frame-p-1133934.html?rmmds=search&ID=528167&cur_warehouse=CN) - **Video Transmitter:** [TBS Unify Nano](https://www.team-blacksheep.com/products/prod:tbsunifypro_nano) - **Battery:** 300mah Turnigy Nano Lipos (16.6g) Build Guide: https://youtu.be/e1hpbmy4K00 Flight Footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu98jAzBuyo&feature=youtu.be
