Building the frame – Part 1
build a quadcopter frame
This is the SK450 glass fiber quadcopter frame from hobby king. it’s a vary simple and easy to build frame.
If you haven’t seen the start page with all the parts listed on it, click here to start there!
Inside the box you’ll get:
- the manual
- 4 arms
- a yellow orientation ball
- some screws
- all the fiberglass plates
- some rods to hold the ball
- a plastic screwdriver
- some black hex threaded spacers for the flight controller
- landing gear
- and the box (obviously).
- Now that we have everything out of the box, we can start by screwing the
arms on to the bottom plate for the frame (I’m using a 2.0mm hex
driver). on the bottom side, each arm only requires 2 screws (so 8
screws total for the bottom).
After that we can flip the frame over screw the top plate on. This
process is almost the same but instead of 8 screws, there are 16.
now we can install the mounting plates for the motors, they require 3 screws each.
We’re almost done with the frame, all we have to do now is mount the
landing gear. There are only 2 screws for each arm (1 on each end).
