Hi guys,we've been working for some time on a stylish cool design for an arducopter frame that could be easily unmounted and that would give the quad a super-w00t lookhere are a few renders, any feedbacks appreciated !Alex

@ Jim Powell – what does your printed part weigh ? Assuming that it has quite a thin section, I’d be interested to hear whether you think that it is going to have sufficient strength to be really useful . The Dimension 1200es 3D printer I have used doesn’t produce sufficiently strong thin sections to work well with this design. I’d also have concerns about vibration issues with independent hoops.
I was pursuing a similar printed design but on cost grounds alone I went for a thin ply construction :
very elegant, no grass-landings/takeoffs with this beauty, i guess
i have no clue about arducopter frames... will the ring around the props not cause resonance/vibrations ?

there's a link to the 3d files let me know how that turns out ! https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6774414/eyedrone_3d.zip
