Son of a gun Quadcoptor

Hello everyone. I'm Dhruv and this is in progress prototype of a new quadcoptor frame. it can also be made for tricoptor.

I got inspiration/idea from fps russia youtube channel video which had a fake quad drone but i liked the body of it. So i made it in autocad, did some trial and errors and now made it from biofoam.

It's close to final product. Altough i havn't modified the arms yet.
My soldering iron broke :(  so i had to use the escs as the were, thats the reason esc are out. 

I dont know why few pics are upside down but if u click on them it opens correctly.

They'll be inside and wires go through the arms. all electronics are of my old quad which also was a scratch build.

The camera mount is of gopro dimensions. 

 

Inside there is place for esc, kk2.0, camera, And a back section for rx and antenna mountings.

The top is removable and so is front, The center plate for arms mounting is temporary and i will get new ones laser cut soon.

This is my first ever attempt on making its prototype. So if any mistakes kindly point out and suggest solutions.

I've attached images along with some noting. My pc was formatted and i lost photoshop, had to do the noting in ms paint  :/

 

My old quad was a mod of David's quad center plates.
