Quad Three piggyback

Just the frames, but Quad Three is cute enough that the girls in my life want to name them all now.

wow. that thing looks like it is straight out of a Terry Gilliam film. or at least when it is finished maybe. Really cool. You doing that just for pretty or does it have a certain function?

oh, it's finished, for the moment. Quad Two was retired/shelved. I will resurrect it, when I have time, but to meet it's design goals, I needed to invalidate other goals. This is only the frame of Quad Two, underneath Quad Three (which was named Scrappy, because nearly every part, from the wood to the APM+oilpan were cast off/broken/extra/scrap parts from previous builds. Even the oilpan is a broken unit. 

 

Scrappy is actually my best flying quad, better even than my 3DR frame. I have other photos and might share them if you pester me enough ;)

 

I was put them together to provide a sense of the difference in size for someone who was interested.
