The frame is credit to PEX96. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2188747 This is an extension of P3X's frame design, I modified the top plate to protect the prop even more and to stop it from flying out when you crash, also I've altered the bottom plate to also include 25x25 mounting points and reduce the hole size of the motor mounting points as the screws were punching straight through. I didn't want to put the camera on top, so I've created a camera mount to fit in front of the drone. The camera and vtx is all in one, Eachine TX05. I have the battery mounted on top of the drone for better stabilization. The components inside are: FC + 4in1: https://www.banggood.com/20x20mm-XJB-F428-Micro-F4-AIO-OSD-BEC-Flight-Controller-28A-Blhel_S-BB2-2-4S-4-in-1-ESC-p-1191889.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN Motor 1104: (I prob wouldn't use these again, they seem too weak) https://www.banggood.com/Emax-Babyhawk-Spare-Part-One-PC-1104-5250KV-1-2S-Brushless-Motor-p-1151486.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc_ods&utm_campaign=arvin-cam-sds-view-airtrack-content&utm_content=arvin&gclid=Cj0KCQjw17n1BRDEARIsAFDHFezvC8LBN6CHAwmROYY-ta65GBiH4Nb5NfspPI84Thp3M9QUfQqXx3EaAu3_EALw_wcB&cur_warehouse=CN Better motors: https://www.banggood.com/Eachine-Twig-115mm-3-Inch-FPV-Racing-Drone-Spare-Part-1105-5200KV-3-4S-Brushless-Motor-p-1571620.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN 3S Lipo Battery: https://www.banggood.com/Gaoneng-GNB-11_1V-550mAh-80160C-3S-Lipo-Battery-XT30-Plug-For-Eachine-Lizard95-FPV-Racer-p-1254203.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN Camera + VTX: https://www.banggood.com/Eachine-TX05-0_0152550100250mW-Switchable-w-OSD-AIO-5_8G-72CH-VTX-600TVL-NTSC-Mini-FPV-Camera-p-1181013.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN Frsky XM+ receiver: https://www.banggood.com/Frsky-XM+-Micro-D16-SBUS-Full-Range-Mini-RC-Receiver-Up-to-16CH-for-RC-FPV-Racing-Drone-p-1110020.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=AU Overall, a neat little micro drone and I like the cage as I feel safer flying it indoors. Could do with a bigger battery for longer flights - with the eachine 1105 motors its stupidly fast. I printed everything using PLA and it holds up fine, the only thing is, I need to put rubber pads on the bottom or some form of impact absorbing sponge as the top has broken a few times already. On 3S Lipo it is very fun to fly. Thanks P3X for the original cage design.
