Micro HD Quadcopter Frame - The Kestrel
Description
I don't think this is a work in progress any longer! I'm calling this version 1.0! I’m designing a smaller Acrobrat-like freestyle frame for HD FPV cameras with easily configurable arm geometry. It should allow 3” builds under 200 grams, and light 4” builds (hopefully!) under 250 grams! The Kestrel frame is licensed under the GNU GPL 2. I want this frame to be a good upgrade path from your existing 2.5” or 3” bind-n-fly micro. Pick up a Runcam Split Mini or Caddx Turtle, transplant the guts of your Leader 3, and start recording awesome HD freestyle footage!

The OpenSCAD source and all the DXF and SVG output for the [Kestrel is hosted at Gitlab](https://gitlab.com/patshead/kestrel-frame).
