NerdCopter by quadmodder

NerdCopter is my attempt at a 300mm fpv racing quad. The idea to keep as much of the fpv in the clean section as possible, while leaving the copter untouched. This makes it easy to swap out your fpv for different cameras, frequencies, etc. The frame is pretty stiff, and should hold up to 2300kv motors at 4s with 6 inch props. I posted this version early, because I had quite a few people waiting for it. I hope it doesn't disappoint. Top deck mods and cam mounts are coming very soon. I'll be posting more stuff at nerdcopter.com, as well as links to all of the parts in my BOM as things progress. I won't be selling these frames, but if you want to buy me a beer to keep hacking on this, go to the site for instructions.

Added top section for APM, or other stuff. I'll be working on making it lighter now. Considering I set it up for 6 inch props at 4s 2300kv, 206g is actually not bad if it's tough.

Maiden flight with Naze32 Acro (Cleanflight), RVPOWER 2300kv motors, lumenier 12A nfet ESC, 6x3 gemfan, and 1800 3s. Going to switch to 4s now on t-motor 6x2. Maiden was perfect out of the box.
Thanks for watching.
Enjoy!
Thanks, and enjoy.
