Easy swap system for Micro 105 FPV Quadcopter

Description

First Of All, Credit Goes Out To <A Href="Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Punkkills">Punkkills</A> For Designing The <A Href="Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:1221911">Micro 105 Frame</A> Which Has Been My Favorite Frame To Fly, Adapt And Build Upon. I'M New To 3D Design And I Could Not Have Made This From Scratch. Updates: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18-3-2017 - Added A Skillfully Painted Schematic For Kanata :) 31-1-2017 - Tested Out The Version With Grommets And It Has Way Less Power, Wouldn'T Recommend It! 10-1-2017 - Added A Version Which Supports 8Mm Rubber Grommets 29-12-2016 - Added A Battery Holder For Nanotech 600 (Untested) 26-12-2016 - Added A 7Mm Version Of The Frame By Request, Not Tested But Should Work. - Added The Cli Dump As A Text File. Why This Remix? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3D Printing Quadcopter Frames Is Convenient, But I Always End Up Breaking A Lot Of Them. Whilst The Costs Of Printing A New One Is Low, It Takes Precious Time To Change The Frame Which Could Also Be Used For Flying Instead. What I Wanted To Achieve Was A System Which Allows For Quick Frame Swapping In The Field, So I Could Just Bring A Few Spare Frames And Parts, Keeping Repair Time Down To A Minimum. Features: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - <A Href="Https://Www.Youtube.Com/Watch?V=6X9Nr_Vwuho">Easy To Swap</A> To A New Frame (Takes Around 2 Minutes) - Modular Parts So If You Break A Battery Mount, You Can Easily Replace It And Keep Flying. - Easily Adaptable To Different Fc'S, Batteries, Camera'S, And Even Frames. - Good Protection Of Electronics And The Cloverleaf Antenna If You Use The 'Mulletmod'. - Great Performance, Check It Out <A Href="Https://Www.Youtube.Com/Watch?V=1Sr2Rz-Y3Tw">Here</A> :) Build Instructions: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Requirements: - You Are Going To Need 2X M3 Nylon Bolts And Nuts. - Motors Need To Be Direct Soldered To The Fc, There Is No Room For Connectors. - Mullet Mod For The Cam/Vtx Is Recommended, But I Have Included A Normal Camera Mount If You Haven'T Done A Mulletmod Before. (If You Haven'T, Look It Up On Youtube It'S Perfect) Tip: Solder The Motors To The Underside Of The Fc. This Allows For Easy Soldering Access When Replacing A Motor. Use Some Drops Of Hotglue On The Solder Points And On The Front Corners Because This Is What The Fc Will Rest On When It Is 'Sandwiched'. :) The Idea Is The Flightcontroller Is Secured To The Cameramount And Not To The Frame. You Can Use Double Sided Tape And A Bit Of Hotglue. The Cameramount+Fc Is Then Attached To The Frame Using 2 Nylon Bolts. On The Bottom Side Of The Frame, The Batterybracket Is Then Secured With The 2 Nylon Nuts. The Batteryholder Is To Be Superglued To The Batterybracket. Make A Few Of Them So It Can'T Cause You Downtime If The Mount Would Snap Off In A Crash. Now When You Want To Change The Frame, Perform Maintenance Or Repairs, You Just Unscrew The 2 Bolts, And Off Come All The Electronics! *Almost Forgot: There Is A Little 'Tab' At The Front Of The Frame, This Is To Protect The Front Of The Battery And Prevent It From Shooting Forward In A Crash. You Can Heat This With A Lighter And Bend It In Shape. (Careful Not To Burn Your Fingers) Designed For Parts: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <A Href="Http://Www.Banggood.Com/Micro-Scisky-32Bits-Brushed-Flight-Control-Board-Based-On-Naze-32-For-Quadcopters-P-1002341.Html?P=4S26211552037201504F">Micro Scisky</A> Or Similar (Preferably With Integrated Receiver To Save Weight And Space) <A Href="Http://Www.Banggood.Com/Fx-Fx798T-5_8G-600Tvl-25Mw-40Ch-Mini-Transmitter-Camera-Combo-For-Fpv-Multicopter-P-1053038.Html?Rmmds=Search">Fx798T</A> Or Similar (If You Have A Request, Let Me Know, Tx03?) 8.5Mm Motors (Preferably The Better Ones Like <A Href="Http://Micro-Motor-Warehouse.Com">Mmw</A>, <A Href="Https://Www.Spintechmotors.Com/">Spintechs</A>, Etc.) Battery Holder Designed To Fit <A Href="Https://Hobbyking.Com/En_Us/Graphene-600Mah-1S-W-Jst-Syp.Html">Graphene 600</A> (Again, If You Have A Request, Let Me Know) Hubsan Clear Props (<A Href="Http://Www.Ebay.Com/Itm/16Pcs-Clear-Rotor-Blade-Propellers-Props-Rc-Quadcopter-For-Hubsan-X4-H107-/251702076243">Ebay</A>) (My Favorite) 65Mm Gemfans Also Fit Perfectly (On The 8.5Mm Version), But I Don'T Like Them. Wait, What..? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did I Forget Anything? Do You Have Any Questions?
