OpenRacer + DJI O3 = ❤️? (multipurpose drone overview)

Honestly this frame really blew my mind. I don't mind it being a little heavier. The fact it's open for everyone and there is put in so much work makes it the best. Thanks again for making the different cam locker angles ✌️🏁

Thanks for all the hard work you did on this frame for the community, you sir are a scholar and a Saint! So many Open racers in my fleet of all different kinds now.

[@P-Bee]

What perfect timing. My openRacer frames arrived from Canada to New Zealand yesterday. Thanks so much.

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

Enjoy the riding! How much was shipping? And watch out, CNC madness got a few screws wrong in the past and missing.

[@P-Bee]

@@IvanEfimovLimon $40US for shipping 4x OpenRacer frames including braces, a toothpick and some extra stack screws. Shipping to NZ is always expensive though. I think the screws are correct for a 30x30 build but not for a 20x20 so I'll have to source those myself. I've printed the HDZero pod with integrated fin from TurtleModeFPV. It looks pretty nice. Tough and low maintenance rather than low weight is what my skill level needs!

The last couple of releases have been absolutely incredible. 🔥💪🏻

[@willpowerfpv3246]

It's my birthday, so I decided to make this my party! Got my frame yesterday, ordered the 03 livery pod from 533, and all my electronics should be here tomorrow. I went a bit nuts. I want to have fun with this build. I've never been into racing, except a couple of months ago my friends started a tiny whoop Race League in Edmonton, and now I've raced two times, and placed 3rd both times. I've got to thinking, maybe I do like racing, and then those guys told me that they actually get together to race in the city a few times every summer. For that I can't really justify building a purest racing drone, but I like the idea of having something multi-purpose. I've got the foxeer h7 (overkill, I know), and a Kiss Ultra mini on the way, and I'll pair one of them with the Foxeer mini 60A. (Square version). Rcinpower 2207 2100k, Elrs, 03, Ultra!?! It's my birthday and I can do what I want..🤪 Oh, and I got my frame cut at CNC Madness in both silver and blue, so I'm going for a two-tone. I'm stoked. Thanks Limon!! 🍋🍋🍋

Hi Limon, Is it possible to push the .f3d or eventually just STEP-files to Github also? I like the OpenRacer frame and durability of the canopy, but I really hate editing STL's if I want to make some small changes such as adapting for the antennas I have, adding a ThumbPro, etcetera.

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

For sure. But honestly it's too much work at this point. You can always ping me and ask to share specific canopy that you want to modify

[@NOT_ANOTHER_FPV]

or this with Caddx? I mean you could fit either I assume? Just saying cause I got an extra caddx unit that needs a home.

What is the "dry" weight of the frame with screws, please? Really like this concept, the review is slightly mental, but very entertaining.... :-D

i forgot to measure that... I know the full build drone is 350 (without battery) with 2207 headsup motors and props, with big 20x20 60A foxeer ESC (square one). So something like 90-100g, just the frame (no braces)

Had to make minor modifications (longer screws & washers for the SpeedyBee 30X30 stack & to lift canopy, see it on Rotorbuilds under Stevensbox). It flies as good or better than all my other builds. I crashed hard 3 times so far with no damage (I am a sh_t pilot). Not only that, I have 2 more frames on order because my brother in law wants me to build him one & I want a back up. Now I have to learn Fusion 360 to modify the canopy to accept a GPS & maybe get props out of view (Tinkercad could not upload the stl file). You can make it up to me by making a squished X frame with the option of 6" arms. Get to work. Don't be lazy.
