Obsessed with Orange

So, this is peak orange for me.... but I loved carrying the theme through. Sadly orange silicon isn't very vibrant so the wires and electrical tape aren't as nice as I hoped. I actually took the tape off the arms because it was too much. This thing flew like a dream on default PIDs and betaflight 3.1.7 with the D-term filtering steps 1 and 2 implemented. However, I'm not super happy with the fact that a 10ft fall onto grass caused an arm to break around the motor mount holes. Hoping it was a fluke, but I have heard similar reports elsewhere.

Wow, look at those biceps :) I think those ESCs are well protected.

Hah, yeah - it's 1/2" internal diameter aquarium tube. I slice it down one side and it sits nice over the arm under the tape.
