G-Quad 150

I designed this quad to be relatively durable and easy to print. It can be used with either 8mm carbon rods or printed rods for attaching the motor pods to frame. (Once aligned just add a drop of super glue) Using rods makes the quad adjustable to some extent. Just cut or print longer rods and you can increase the span to your needs. I have included two sized of printed rods 35mm and 37.5mm which provide spans of 145mm and 150mm respectfully. For motors I recommend a 1306 with 3" props.

With the 3D printed arms and no lid the frame weighs in at 27g. The lid will add an additional 6g for a total of 33g. I assume most people will probably fly without the lid. If you want to save a few more grams I would say using carbon rods will help.

I printed mine with PLA which is a pretty dense plastic. It is also brittle compared to say PETG or ABS. This quad is really designed for recreational flying. If you plan to "race" the quad I suggest using either of these over PLA.
