DRL pro pilot cum AirBlade team pilot, Eric 'Armonic', approached me few months ago asking for a design that meets his specific needs. He wants a sub-250g legal flying machine that he can take on his hikes and camping trips. He wants to be able to do micro mid range flight with it. At that time, I was about to refresh my Intrepid design so I thought this was a perfect opportunity to update that design.

We compiled a list of things that the design needs to meet:

• Reasonably light frame
• Removable arms
• Support Split Mini or GoPro
• Support 9mm and 12mm motor pattern
• Top mounted battery
• Support 20x20 stack
• Double stack design for slammed top plate configuration
• BONUS: Crossfire Antenna mount
• BONUS: toilet tank style battery mount

The new AirBlade Intrepid V2 met all those requirements AND it can fit up to 1300mah 4S on the top plate for some serious micro mid-long range action. ENJOY!

NOTE: the pictures below are prototype frames, small changes have been made to the cage design to allow the GoPro session to sit better, TBS Crossfire antenna mount was added to the arm.
