The K-Quad now available for download from Thingiverse

As a quick reminder to those using the Turnigy 1811 motors: Keep rechecking those grub screws !  Mine were locktighted in, but today it decided to pop out, and I got to see a shot of my prop wandering past my camera

Mine must have got just a tad loose and then pulling out of the dive was the straw that broke the camels back -

Motor mount fail

The screw tried to hang on best it could, and made this nice little mark :)

Ouch, any damage done?

Ouch, any damage done?

None at all, it landed quite flat and bounced :)

hi guys,

i am looking for a small quad and i think this might be it!!

I would like to know if i have the mobius camera and immersion 600mw, what is the maximum flight time possible with this frame?

[krikey]

I get around 6 minutes with a 2S 1300mAh setup running an 808 and a 600mW VTx.  Some users are using 3S so perhaps you'll get more if using 3S.

[ahtiram2725]

how tough is this frame? for example it can survive crashes?

[krikey]

Well I think you should look back through the thread above :) Its a lightweight frame and mine has survived quite a few crashes but of course it really depends what you mean by "crash".

If you fell from 100 feet onto concrete I think it would be a miracle if nothing broke, let alone the frame :)

I'm always updating the frame design and rolling out new versions to counter some of the structural issues. The new base of the frame comes in three parts and the new arms which will be ready shortly will be more sturdy than the previous versions.

[ahtiram2725]

ok!

so my next question is whether you can do rtf or arf minus the rx and tx? unfortunately i dont have building skills! !

[krikey]

No unfortunately I don't do ARFs or RTFs, just the frame :)

I've been practising (no pain, no gain) flying low level along some tracks and around some bushes and this leafless bush just jumped up and knocked it out of the sky! Loosened my repair to the black arm and removed two prop blades ! Bugger!
Had a good day today, also managed to land my X580 quad upside down by bouncing a landing into a tight space!
Had a good laugh pushing my limits a bit, I've been up to > 500 feet with the X580 and it's quite windy here.

I'd love to know how you are all getting on with your K-Quad frames, what setups are working for you, what issues you have/had and how/if you resolved them? Please let me know either by PM or on this thread.

Thanks all.
