Description
NOTICE: This does not work with 3.5" props, only 3". The 3.5" props interfere with the canopy.
I looked for quad frames that would fit, or be easily modified to fit the 03 Air Unit while achieving CRUX35 flight times, but those do not exist IMO. I started out with a Volador 3.5, but the airframe alone weighed almost 100 grams vs 20-25 grams for the CRUX35. I do believe this is one of the longer flying unmodified 03(not naked) quads, yet still decently sized for back yard flying.
Canopy used is a Rekon 5 DJI 03 air mount by maxbl4 on thingiverse. I trimmed the action cam mount from the top of canopy to save some weight and make mounting a little easier. It's not a perfect fit on the crux but it does work well.
VTX antenna is for Crux35 by JUSTMAKE3D on cults.
