My first quad, built to learn basics and LOS flight.
I saw the frame on thingiverse few months back and always wanted to build it, so here it is.
I printed the frame from gray PLA first, but after going through 5 frames in 3 days, I printed it from yellow ABS, that frame is still going strong after many crashes.
The quad flies pretty nice with stock Betaflight 3.2.3 tune. First I wanted to add AIO camera to the quad and learn FPV, but I decided to build 5 inch mini rather than upgrade this little guy. It's fun flying it, but I got an itch for bigger one :P

That's the spirit!!!! I hope I get to buy/fly a frame you design one day, I think you will go far in this hobby.
The frame is not my design, credits for that go to punkkils on thingiverse. But designing my own micro frame for 3d printing sounds like fun project for sure :P
