FPVCycle TP3 3” Toothpick
Features:
Multi Unit design
T700 carbon in 0.5mm laminate thickness (thinner is better, typical is 1.5mm)
~9-10g built frame base with hardware (some variation)
1.5mm body plates, 2.5mm arms
Accepts 1”x1” typical whoop mounting platform
Good quality carbon but no chamfers to keep costs down
Made to be used. Not a shelf ornament.
Every line on this design is very delicately crafted for optimization
The optional cross bars are intended to improve durability for those that put their quads through the punishment of racing. The cross bars weigh 1.3g ea, are made of 2.5mm carbon and you will need 7mm long M2 screws to mount the motors after installing.
Multi Unit design benefits:
Repairability when you smash it
Skinnier arms for less thrust deflection and rotational drag
Similar weight to a monobody of the same or lesser durability
Cheaper to maintain
Easier to repair and maintain
Doesn’t ruin your flying day due to a crash
