After months of waiting to win a Solo in the giveaway, I just made my own. The angled arms are shorter with the back arms swept back to accommodate 10" propellers. The landing gear was brought in to a mount on the underside (which can still mount a Tarot gimbal) Detachable legs that work as replacements for the !ris+ legs were integrated into the mount. A mount was created for the front mount for the Tarot 2D to get absolutely zero encroachment of legs/props. A tower mounted Ublox 7N was added to match the Solo. These are, of course, 3D printed parts. I hot knifed the threaded inserts from broken Iris arms and all in all was mostly design and print. 3 months of work done.

One motor is fried, so I am going to replace and test. Not too sure about COG; feels a little front heavy. There is a mount area underneath for a gimbal if needed. Hoping this config will work.
Love it! Looks very professional and, best of all, gets the camera out front. Did you manage to maintain COG with the back-swept arms?
I think it was an overall weight decrease of 60 grams. I have a new CCW motor coming, so it's not flown yet. I post the epic/tragic video soon. Sorry Jason, I lost all the STL's in a tragic Makerbot fire. ;)
Any weight in/decrease? Any chance of people getting their hands on the STLs? ;)
Awesome stuff, :-) managed to have a maiden flight with it yet?
Nice! Do you have zoomed pics of the attachment and dampening of the gimbal?
I'm going to make the legs a bit more angled and shorter.
I'll take it!
In the words of my brother crack a lacking (he is a touch embarrassing for a 40 something)
