Pat G's New WASP!
A huge thank you to everyone that helped Pat find a name for this beast.
Congratulations to TRACKS for picking the winning name!
What you get with this model is big fun in a small package! This craft is a joy to fly. Fast ,light ,and very responsive. Took a hit to the ground,solid enough to kill an OSD, and not a scratch on her.
Bellissimo Patrizio!
" Simplicity, Durability and Affordability." With this in mind, Pat designed the frame to be as light and tough as possible. In order for it to be simple to assemble it has a minimal amount of plates and hardware.
Nicely engineered with a full carbon fiber lower deck and arms it is rigid and light. 323 mm at the widest and 725 grams AUW with a 2200mah 3s and FPV gear. Arms will fit a range of motors and will accommodate 6 inch props!
The design has a low parts count and goes together quickly.
