This is a rebuild of the parts from my Intrepid 3" build. I was looking to redo things a little cleaner and after building the Tokio 5" I was pretty excited to try the Phuket. The canopy isn't injection molded or anything, and this frame is designed for a AIO FC/4IO-ESC/PDB single-stack, but it works well enough with the single ESCs and a little creative wire routing. I probably should be running 2800kV or 3250kV with the 3076 props, as the weight is right around 280g with a 850mAh pack and amps will probably get close to the limit at full throttle - but these motors need to be pushed until they don't spin anymore before I try anything else.
The canopy glows in the dark! Cool!
OldRadioTransmission makes a stubby Pagoda2Extreme, and that's dope. Pagoda antennae of all types have become my goto, the performance is excellent and the cost is nearly 1/4 of the newest, fanciest, latest options. Check out Maarten Baert's website for more info: Maarten Baert's website
