Yes, the small inner cords of the paracord get pulled out, then you slide it over the cables. If you google "paracord cable sleeving" you can find lots of tutorials.

Also if you've got thicker wires, you may want to go for 750lb mil-spec paracord, this will give just a little bit more room for the thicker cables and it's high-quality stuff www.toughgrid.com let me know what you think, Amazon customers seem to think they're pretty amazing.

Not yet, maybe something coming up soon

I find reddit to be a good forum for mini quads, but since you asked maybe have a look at the variety of new 210 frames. There's the Bolt, the Goby and QAV210. Lots of clones as well.

Late reply, but I think the ZMR250 is still worth it for new flyers. It's cheap, very strong, and replacements and aftermarket parts are very plentiful. 210 quads are faster and lighter but tend to be more fragile and more niche, so weird addons are hard to come by unless you go custom.

I would check out the beerotor 210

I ran 4S with 5045 bullnose props on this setup for quite some time. They barely got warm.

This is the v1 FPVmodel board which requires insulating washers for the arms. It's not bad, I've had no problems with it. Survived many crashes so far, including a few head on metal pole hits which dented it a bit, and an unlucky tree tumble which ripped one of the ESC wires from the arm. All of the surface mount components are now hotglued for extra security. Some people have problems with pads lifting, but I feel that's installation error.

Pretty much. I used Sugru, but hot glue or something would work just as well. Has held up through many crashes so far.

I am so annoyed at my F330 right now, I cracked the top plate... Right after I fixed it!
Time for Carbon fiber ZMR250! Will my 930kv motors work? Im guessing not?

You'll need higher kV motors to spin the smaller props fast enough to have good performance, something in the 1900 - 2300 range.

Yes, you might as well stick with the F330 form factor or even upgrade to a more robust F450 frame. If you want to build a 250 you'll need different motors.

Yea, I guess I might as well just build another copter... The f450 will hold up better?

It depends on the frame you get. There are some pretty nice 450mm frames. The F450 is what I'd consider entry level, but for a few dollars more you can get something a bit nicer. There's the Diatone Q450, the Reptile 450 or even the S500.

Hmm, you know the build im talking about right? The F330 acro?
Would it still be "acroish" on a bigger frame? (Just wan't to make sure we are on the same page ;) Are there any better f330 frame size alternatives that are carbon fiber or something?

Thanks!

Those motors aren't very "acroish", so you're probably best off making this an AP rig and building a separate acro rig on a 250mm or smaller frame.

O really? Lol I have been treating it like a acro... Oops... Alright, thanks for the advice!

Yes, this is one of my favorites.

That brings up a good point. Maybe I should allow notes on each part.

Type 1 was used for all the smaller cables. 550 for vtx/camera/rx wires (all 3 inside), and 650 was for the 14awg battery cable.

I would recommend Micro for the small wires, but I was unable to find a Micro that was cored or coreless. They were all solid and couldn't be used for sleeving :(.

Hey, thanks. I used Sugru since it also somewhat bonds the two pieces together for a little extra holding power. I have InstaMorph, just another thermoplastic, but it'd require additional adhesive. I also didn't have the black powder to color it. Either works well, though hot glue would probably be easiest over both of them.

Yeah, that makes sense. I really like the end result of Sugru, but it's usually sort of messy to work with. Any tips there?

That's odd. For me it was basically just like a greasy playdough. Mold to shape and come back in 24hrs. If it was messy, maybe it was expired?

Well, that's good to know. It actually may have been old. I'll have to order a fresh set of packets.

I saw this on reddit first and was quite happy to see it here later. That paracord is really nice. I'm tempted to get some for my own wires.

BTW, how did you take and edit your photos? The white background is very nice.

Thanks! I used a large piece of white paper taped to a wall and curved down to a desk. Two remote flashes on the sides (umbrella or softbox). Kind of a quick and easy light box. The flashes blow out the background to pure white so minimal editing is required.

Well then, great work on the build and the photography! I cheated and just took some outdoor shots of mine, http://rotorbuilds.com/build/24
