Description

A minimum impact approach to adding 30mm stack support to an already fantastic drone. What you'll see on mine in addition to the changes made to the model were to accommodate my specific hardware. - Drilled all 4 front camera mounts out to M3. Using an M3 screw the camera mounts themselves allow you to screw in individually, securely, from either the top or bottom using one of the many M3x8 screws you'll have lying around during this build. Also makes actually working on it so much easier being able to have the assembly “partially” installed at all times. As a final note I couldn't find a 25mm M2 screw in my whole workshop. Weird. - Drilled out the four M2 VTX mounts to M3. This is to accommodate the walksnail nano V3s 20mm m3 inverted case mount. An annoying and ridiculous thing that has come in handy precisely zero times until this project. It wasn't hard to modify but this was NOT easy to build in. Everything is tight and you gotta work in place. No soldering outside the craft. I had to carefully consider every millimeter of space when cutting wires and routing things. There's zero room to spare and I would argue the capacitor is semi-structural . Final notes: - No, you don't need both a low frequency and high frequency filtering caps with a digital system. But I Like them (and so should you) - I have taken these tiny ceramic antennas out to OVER THREE KILOMETERS. So for bashing any property it's got more than enough grunt to get it done. Lose the extra weight and complexity. @ProgrammaDan Thank you for this great model to jump off from for my own build. I'd be willing to bet you can incorporate some of the changes and if you were to I would have no issue with you using my project files in part or in whole.
