Well it seems there aren't enough Tarot 250 bulds so...

[Sweet Pickle]

LOL.
Not really of course tehre are a couple already but you can never have too many right?.
Props (see what I did there?) go to Beaver2206 because I had a heads up of the QC issues before I even started on the frame. Made me approach it in a different light... anyway. I love this frame after I hated it. It';s so neat and tidy. Shame it will probably never fly in anger as it';s light as a feather.

Board is Flip32+, Motors are DYS 2300KV Black Edition, ESC are EMAX Simon Series 12v, FPV cam is the Tarot TL300M Cam From Banggood. VTX is the 600mw Mini TL300N, RX is FrSky D4R-II, got a cheap Banggood cloverleaf on at the moment as it';s liable to crash many times, if I ever become proficient (unlikely) I';d put one of Gavs Skew';s on as still sat in wrapping since delivery. Little lost model alarm poking through underneath desoldered from a hobbyking Servo board I had lying about. Undertray is my own design 3D printed affair. Very light and very tidy. That';s about all really.

Some Pics if you please.
Inside the belly of the beast 


Components laid bare


Trimmed down ESC';s


Motors threaded through the Tarot arm holes


Look, no Zip ties


And from above...


Wiring from underneath, servo pin connected for easy breakout but soldered direct to both PDB and Flip32.


Ohh, look at the buzzer on that. Buzzer wired through the undercarriage and holes out for RX antenna.



I think I';ve got a side-on (shot)


And one from the front



So, you want to see my belly eh?



And from above


Sit on the scales and I';ll guess your weight (all in including battery and props)



Hope you like it........ and yes I do know the middle plate is back-to-front.  Had to do it that way so I had easy access to the front camera servo lead. (That';s my excuse and I';m sticking to it)

Super clean build m8 ... loving it :)

[dougc]

Nice one love it

Hmm I';m starting to want one of these though there are other things I want ahead of another 250

Where all the holes in the right place with this one?

[Sweet Pickle]

Unfortunately holes were not in the right place and all the problems of Beavers build were still present. When all was said and done though it wasn';t a mountain of work. Just tragic that the issues were not picked up during production.

Did a test hover on the bed just now. All seems very good out of the box so can';t grumble.
Only issue is Buzzer going off all the time. Battery all good and connected to TX so a bit of an odd one. Not too concerned, will troubleshoot tomorrow. Think there';s probably something I';m missing in cleanflight.
Thanks for the kind words chaps. 

[kilby]

It';s just annoying that they produce a decent frame and then do something stupid like that.

Have to say that I dislike lipo alarms, they just don';t seem to work that well for me

[Sweet Pickle]

Wish it was the Lipo alarm. It';s a lost model setup from the Flip/Naze. Can';t see nothing in cleanflight. Need to let it go and come back with fresh eyes tomorrow.

[bazzerh]

i put one together minus electrics and i dont think the missing holes are a problem at all. in fact i dont think any of the plastic spacers and bolts connecting carbon parts to the pdb are necessary. the arms seem super stiff already and the plastic bolts will shear off very easily.

got 3 friends building these at the moment and i cant wait to see the flight results. 405g is super light and the perfect geometry on the motors should make these things fantastic to fly fpv,not with the tarot camera though, i tested one and it';s very poor.

i am waiting with baited breath to see what happens after a good crash or two. hoping they will be able to take it. i think the legs will snap like twigs though...

[Tim2100]

Very nice.  I enjoyed building mine, yours is nice and clean.

I also had the middle plate reversed, but Changed it back.
