Oh good, that’s what’s in my plane.
“I know if I read this, I’d never be confident with anything flying with one”….
The clue is in the logo on the 3D print.
I thought someone on here might recognise it.
Come on then! What is it?
Come on then! What is it?
Well JB mentioned it in his Q&A this week…
Its 2 hours long! bah
Its 2 hours long! bah
Yes and it is literally mentioned for about 2 minutes.
Anyway, I’ll save you the effort.
Look up RotorHazard.
Ah an fpv lap timing system, so you’re going to make your own?

Yes indeed. I went to a whoop race on Sunday and the whole lap timing thing intrigued me. Then when JB mentioned this system I looked and found I had a good portion of the components already.
Nice one! Keep us updated on how it’s going
Just 3d printing a prototype frame for some titanium arms I have. When I get it right, I’ll get them cut into 2mm carbon fibre.
What are you going to print them with? PETG or ABS ?
As its a prototype for fitting purposes, its some low quality pla I have. I see no point in flying a quad with metal arms and a plastic body
Print it in TPU Karl and you can call it The Frantic Flapper

How big is it going to be Karl? I would love to design my own frame. Can’t wait to see how this turns out
Frantic Flapper? Spoil sport? I will ignore both your infidelious comments.
It will be the same size as my old one. A 210mm frame, 5" props.
The Frantic Flapper could be an unusual entry into the Wacky and Weird drone build comp. I wonder if it would be possible to make it fly?
Competition…BUILD A WACKY DRONE THAT FLIES Lets see what you’re made of and what you can do! This is a fun competitive competition that will run until 1st August 2022. I must emphasize the word COMPETITIVE. (no prizes ahem) There are some real clever and imaginitive guys here who may like to get their teeth into this. I will. There are 3 rules Build a drone that is so wacky, funny, original, weird, never thought of before and prove that it flies by third person video. Winner chosen by pol…
Good luck tuning out the oscillations
I’m sure Karl’s up for the challenge Deano
