Have us print this for you

PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.

Create a "spider style" Quadcopter. ideal for FPV flying to keep the props out of shot.

It is also much easier to keep visually orientated in the sky.

Two versions of this thing :
1. A central plate for the stock DJI 450 Flamewheel arms or you can print an optimised one supplied (without support).
2. A central plate for the Crossfire printable arms (included) from MikeyB. Plus I include a re-mixed thicker version of these arms if you want to increase the plate distance.

Props are positioned on a 500mm diameter circle, hence the name.

The central plates are large enough to mount a variety of components. See my remixes for extra mountable components, eg [GoPro Flexy Gimbal](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:348970), [standard GoPro mount](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:163107) and [accessory pack](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:225343)
