with the anniversary top and bottom plate and lower standoffs.
I had an old Martian II, that needed new life, so I stripped the old paint of and painted white sides.
Since the bottom and top plates had been broken, I ordered the shorter anniversary plates which are a bit shorter then the original frame. I also replaced the original standoffs (35mm) with 25mm ones which gave the frame a better look.
I designed and 3D printed a new FPV camera mount for the HS1177m.
Above the FPV camera is the custom made, 3D printed, GoPro mount, simple and sits with two zip-ties.
Motors and ESC are the same, but I put black "snakeskin" over the ESC and to hold it to the arm I use an o-ring.
Receiver antennas are monuted "Joshua Bardwell Style" on the back arms.
The last thing I made is a custom battery pad from decor rubber, it was designed in Silhouette Studio and cut on my Silhouette Cameo 3.
First flight is in and I like how it feels, rates and PID's need some tuning but a nice re-build.
The Mango FC was an easy install and the setup take a 4S.
I would recommend getting a lighter prop for your motors in the future. Maybe some king kong 5x4x3 props
That is pretty much the prop thats on there (https://www.banggood.com/10-Pairs-Kingkong-5x4_5x3-5045-5-Inch-3-Blade-Propeller-CW-CCW-for-FPV-Racer-p-1067877.html?rmmds=category&cur_warehouse=CN)
Nice rebuild. Any idea where can I get the "snakeskin"?
Search for snakeskin or braided wire tube.
