FREKI I - The Hybrid FPV Quad

Description

<h1> FREKI I - The hybrid FPV-race Quadcopter </h1> <h3> FREKI I is an open-source quadcopter, designed specifically for me to be able to get everything I wanted out of a high-performance FPV quadcopter. I wanted characteristics suitable for smooth cinematic flying, and FPV racing, whilst still being easy to fly, with extreme durability, making it a hybrid of canonical quad designs. The design styling is reminiscent of early tank designs, and suitably so - the roll-cage and thick unibody carbon-fibre frame provide excellent durability and strength. FREKI I can even be developed by you, with the public CAD links, you can add and change whatever specifications you want - developing your own parts for your drone! </h3> <h1> UPDATE: </h1> <h3> Thingiverse is preventing even small-size zips from uploading. Access a zip of all files and build manual from my website: https://www.etarfri.org/projects/freki-i </h3> <h4> Features: </h4> - <h4>High-strength unibody frame with unique roll-cage</h4> - <h4>Perfect C.O.M for smooth, buttery flying</h4> - <h4>Pusher design for efficiency and top-speed</h4> - <h4>Combined CNC and 3D print design</h4> - <h4>Choose pusher or puller motor mounting</h4> - <h4>Aerodynamic form balancing the drone components between the frame</h4> - <h4>Ability to carry either FPV or GoPro mount-style cameras</h4> - <h4>Open-source and developable</h4> - <h4>Flexible component usage and electronics mounts</h4> </h4> <h1> Is FREKI I for you? </h1> <h3> 1) Do you want a very-tough frame design? </h3> <h4>
Yes I do! I don’t care if it’s a bit heavy! I want a frame that is strong; even if the unibody does break from a really big crash I dont mind - I prefer that to replacing lighter arms more often. </h4> <h3> 2) Do you have access to CNC routing or a company to do it for you? </h3> <h4>
Yes I do! I know a guy and he cuts amazing carbon. Perfect, ideally this frame should be cut from 5 mm carbon fibre, with some chamfering to the edges. </h4> <h3> 3) Are you okay at electronics/soldering/DIY/building quads? </h3> <h4>
Yes I love quads and have built one before! Perfect, you won’t have any trouble building this quad. If this is your first quad, have a look at the instruction manual it should help! Or, maybe check out AESIR II. </h4>
