Default RE: Anyone here building a UAVP?

Hi Nick,

It's alway interesting to see how other people assemble frames. It just seems like there's an unlimited way to do it, and they all seem to work just fine. What are those rods made out of? Do you have any weight measurements for this frame?

Cheers,
Rusty
That is true. The arms are tail booms from T-Rex helicopter, they each weight 17 grams. The center plate is 120 grams, very strong, all together it is 188 grams. The UAVP takeoff weight is 1.3 kg including two FlightPower 2170 mAh batteries (flight time 17 min). When camera is added, it goes to 1.7 kg (flight time 10 min).
