ZMR250 X-Frame Redesign - 225mm

thingiverse

I had a pile of ZMR parts lying around and wanted to build a X-configuration frame from some of those parts. I used four arms and sandwiched them inside of a 910 Alloy X base, which held everything together perfectly. I also included a top plate that could probably hold an FPV camera/pod securely in place. Either configure this as a + configuration or rotate the FC +/- 45 degrees of yaw for optimal performance. Printed in Taulman 910 Alloy on my Printrbot Simple Metal with precision and care. Designed specifically for 5" props, you could probably squeeze 6" into it with the right motors. EDIT March 7, 2016 - I added a FPV pod to the top plate, which should protect the camera and give some new mounting options for Tx and antenna. EDIT March 12, 2016 - I finally got all the parts in to put this together and wow does it fly like a dream! Photo added with full build, parts: RCX 2205 2633's swinging 5045 props at high speeds. 20a Littlebees providing reliable power output. Flip32 F3 FC running BetaFlight smoothly. Hawkeye 200mw Tx sending out strong signals. Cheap-o IR 28mm camera capturing crisp images. Weighed in at 470 with this setup and a 1300mah battery, it's perfect for any drone enthusiast.
