3" "Toothpick" style frame for a really compact Caddx Vista DJI HD build.

There are 2 versions, one designed for a lighter build and a slightly beefed up one for bigger motors. This is the lighter one

I've just converted to digital - and this is my first lightwieght build - and its GREAT! It is so fast on 3S - and should be 4S capable.

Lightweight: Dry weight ~75g
FC: flight succex-d https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_9ztE5S
Camera&VTX: Vista + Nebula V2 https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Aks37S
(I modded this to a naked Vista - Use the TPU spacers in this design + some long nylon screws to mount it to the frame directly.
Motors Flywoo 1202.5 5000kv: https://bit.ly/3dLSa9Y
RX: Happymodel EP1: https://bit.ly/3jKrni4
(note - for this RX to work on this FC you need a 1kOhm pull up resistor between the rx pin on the EP1 and 5v).

I print in polycarbonate - should work with ABS. Let me know how you get on with other materials.

Mount the FC upside down and remap the motors - let me know if you need the CLI dump.
The FC is mounted at the top, the vista underneath with screws from the bottom into the brace.

The middle brace is removable - this allows for easy transferring from one frame to another without resoldering anything.

- My first flight - cut short as it started raining...
