Fractal 65 – Frame Kit
Remaining true to its original intent, the Fractal65 features:
65mm diagonal, squished X geometry, for 31mm props
1.5mm Carbon Fiber / Individual Nylon ducts hybrid construction
Low-profile camera mount, no props in view, no tilt offset
Low Center of Gravity, by bringing the AIO closer to the frame/motors
Allows mounting with USB pointing up for easy accelerometer calibration
No need for a canopy as all electronics are tucked safely between the ducts
Maximum rigidity where it matters most; connecting the motors to the FC
Easy maintenance, break one duct, replace only the single duct
Lightweight, less than 19.5g with HM DiamondF4
As always, this is a project that I designed for myself first, that I put together in a product to share with any pilot that would like to experience the same level of requirements!
Designed with love, by a pilot, for pilots.
But don’t take my word for it, here’s what Team Pilot Glenn “Bellaciao” has to say about it:
I am using the whoop at Full Send FPV’s races every week. I’ve been finishing higher and higher, even got a podium the other day. It is extremely stable in flight, and working on it has been incredibly easy. I am surprised at how the flight controller has held up – it is more protected than I expected. Redpine is a dream. Putting an 85% throttle cap on it improves the battery vastly. For angle racing, the camera angle was too aggressive. After a buddy glued the camera to about a 30 degree angle greatly improved angle racing performance, at the cost of acro performance. I cannot state enough how much I love the flight performance, stability, and workability of this platform. I already am planning on building a second one to use as my backup racer, and want to use this as my racing whoop frame, period.
— What do you get? —
This frame kit contains everything you need to build your own craft, based off virtually any components.
I do however recommend a 4-1 AIO (FC/ESC/RX/VTX) to keep the part count to a minimum, but there should be enough room to stack a separate VTX or RX on top of the AIO
It has a 25.5×25.5mm mounting pattern for the AIO, and motor fixations for both 3xM1.4×6.6mm and 3xM1.6×5.5
The camera mount is 3D printed and universal – I will upload the STL and Step files so you may print your own spares or season them to taste
