I.S. commented on CrashingDutchman's blog post X550 Glass Fiber Quadcopter frame 550mm"what are the dimensions of the arm tubes (lenght x ID x OD) ?"
"Unless they are using hand tools to do the machine work on the arms, I don't understand why the motor holes are always parallel in the center of the arms. Moving the holes to an angle allows the motor mount screws to be closer to the tube side…"
Ryan Alexander Bahr commented on CrashingDutchman's blog post X550 Glass Fiber Quadcopter frame 550mm"Don't cheap out and buy this frame on ebay! I bought a x525 and and x450. The x525 is similar to this except springs on the arms, but not a single arm had properly drilled holes which means that what you'd expect would be easy assembly…"

Mike commented on CrashingDutchman's blog post Y650 Scorpion Glass Fiber Multi-Rotor Frame"It is available with a camera mount here http://www.infinity-hobby.com/main/index.php?cPath=239_237
I think these guys are the original designers. I bought a fair bit of kit from them and its all good..."

Fab - Arduino for Visual Studio commented on CrashingDutchman's blog post New altimeter"Perfect for non-droners and not so IT literate folks. I just bought one for a chap at my flying club that loves gliding at high altitudes, makes his own planes but doesn't do electronics :)"

"Interesting, but you get this for free with the APM. Just read the altitude of your logs."
