ecks wooden frames.
Just ordered one of these frames. As I love flying my 330 Quad more then the 450, I've decided to transplant the components onto this cool wooden frame

The plywood frame weights in at around 150g to 180g depending on how it's sanded / finished.
The DJI 330 is 156g. The DJI 450 is 282g. So - basically it's no heavier than a similar sized Quad and it won't flex as much. Should look lovely once I stain & wax it, love the idea of it looking a bit more retro. |

I've seen these kicking about on RCG, but always assumed they were either aluminum or carbon.
Ordered direct from ecks, or is there a distributor?

Ordered direct.
£41 posted from Sweden for an unfinished - plain wood one as I want to 'finish' it myself. |

Bargain!
I don't think I've heard a bad thing about these frames

Any of you chaps know where to buy some 10 or 15amp small - Simon K esc's for this frame? Ideally in the UK.
I've ordered some Afro's but I think they may be too big and a bit overkill as reading the frame thread - people are running tiny 10amp esc's and very small / light motors. |

Not simonK, but purpose designed for multirotor, so pretty almost perfect

Frame arrived today - still waiting on a few bits and pieces. 10amp esc's are tiny - hope they will be up to the job!

Looks really good. I like the standoff and perspex cover for the kk2 as well. Is that just hk plastic spacers and a piece of perspex or like a ready made kit for the kk2. Following on from our telephone conv if I dont find something suitable ill probably do something similar.
What kind of finish are you going to do with the frame. Should have ordered 2 as id be scared to fly it ha ha. With something looking so nice, your going to have to do a major super neat radio install with all the wires perfectly to size. Hmm maybe order 3 then. 1 to fly, 1 as a shelfer and 1 show off just how neat you can make it but too perfect to fly. Ps might be a small delay in me collecting the 330, few mad plans this week including the builders coming on my days off and a mini break in Morecambe. Shame as iv receivedethe 9xr the modules and the rest was ordered and would be here on tuesday so I cohld have flown it on the beach at Morecambe. I'll be in touch though. Col
