Armattan Tadpole 2.5 65mm Frame Kit

We've received numerous requests to design a smaller frame for 65mm props. Initially, we hesitated for two key reasons. First, there were limited choices for small motors and props. Now, the growing popularity of this weight class has brought about more options for motors and great 16 x 16 stacks to power these small models. Second, we didn't want a minimalistic frame with a POD - style 3D - printed or plastic canopy as we aimed for a top - mounted battery. Our goal was to create a light, strong frame with a top - mounted battery. With Jason Hay's help, we found solutions to reduce weight while meeting our design goals. Introducing the Armattan Tadpole! Features include compatibility with 65mm props, a top - mounted lipo for small fun flyers and freestyle frames, a custom aluminium front cage to fully protect a nano cam, custom shorter rear aluminium posts, a new rubber - moulded vtx antenna mount that's modular with the custom rear posts (no bolts needed), a slightly slanted aerodynamic top lipo plate (result of rear - end weight reduction), and a dry frame weight of just 17.5 grams when fully assembled. Specifications are as follows: frame weight is 17.5g, motor - to - motor distance is 119.5, frame shape is a Compressed X, main plate thickness is 2mm, hardware is M2, motor mount pattern is 9mm, FC stack mount can be 16x16 or an optional whoop AIO bracket, FPV camera mount is for Nano (14mm), FPV antenna mounts use a custom rubber holder (1.8mm), max stack height is 16mm, and all parts are bumper - to - bumper warranted. Recommended components are 12xx motors, CADDX Ant cams, 3 - inch props, and 3S or 4S LiPo batteries at 450mAh or 550mAh. Browse all Armattan products, frame kits, and micro frames for more options.

Using the Armattan Tadpole 2.5 65mm Frame Kit is easy. First, choose the recommended components like 12xx motors, CADDX Ant cams, 3 - inch props, and 3S or 4S LiPo batteries at 450mAh or 550mAh. Then, assemble the frame following the standard drone - building process. Make sure to connect the components securely, especially the top - mounted lipo. When flying, keep in mind that the frame is light and aerodynamic, so it can be very agile. However, be careful not to fly in strong winds as it might affect the stability. For maintenance, regularly check the custom aluminium parts for any signs of damage. If the rubber - moulded vtx antenna mount gets loose, you can simply adjust it as it doesn't require bolts. Keep the frame clean from dust and debris, and store it in a dry place when not in use. All parts of this frame are bumper - to - bumper warranted, so if you have any issues, you can reach out for support.
