Description:
Take your 200QX and shave grams off the weight of your stock frame and
keep the electronic cool. This new 3k twill weave solid carbon fiber
frame we designed to fold into an even smaller form factor for storage
and transport. After designing the Carbon Fiber 200QX Mini H Frame we
turned it into a folder that is also lighter, faster, fly longer and
removes the restrictive battery compartment of the stock frame. Even
with reformatting to fold we were able to retain a frame design that
will fit into the cases available for the stock 200QX with little to no
modification to the case foam. These mods allow you to take your 200QX
to the next level.
As always, durability is a crucial component of the frame design. After
experiencing tragic failure of the stock 200QX frame on a very early
flight we first wanted to get more aggressive in our flights and the
stock frame just didn’t seem up to the task. The motors mount to the
arms with the stock acorn nut and a woven carbon fiber spacer to keep
weight down and keep that clean carbon fiber look. Mounting points on
the arms allow for three types of landing gear. The included standoff
landing gear or RcLogger Xtreme EyeOne landing gear, both the 38mm and
79mm landing legs will work.
Reducing weight over the stock monocoque style shell was easy, 1.5mm
carbon fiber central frame and 2.0mm carbon fiber for stronger arms and
material removed from the central frame both lighten the frame and
improve airflow on your 4-in-1 ESC board. Reducing the overall wind
profile of the craft is another great benefit of this folding frame,
providing faster forward flight less affected by crosswinds. Airflow
improvements have greatly helped in our high stress acro flights of the
CarbonGear 200QX Frame and turn a stock mini quad into the high
performance Folding Carbon Fiber 200QX.
Longer flights have also been made possible through lightening and the
elimination of the battery compartment allowing for the installation of
any 800-1500 2 cell battery with a JST connector. Battery consumption is
much lower with all of the bulky plastic frame gone, less motor power
is required to perform arial maneuvers reducing current draw on the
FET’s. With the the stock canopy frame removed we found that the ESC
board runs around 50 degrees cooler, even during high current draw sport
flight.
For FPV or aerial photography buffs out there we have created the
optional board cam mounting plate. (sold separately) Screw on the top
mount accessory plate and mount your VTX up top or, use the platform off
the back of the frame to mount your electronics. With the drastic
weight reduction over the stock frame adding some lightweight FPV gear
won’t overload your quad. If you want to film your flight many of the
action cameras available will mount right under the nose and the slots
in the central frame will allow for many mounting tie points. We mounted
our Mobius under and were able to film prop free video.
The conversion process is simple and requires basic hobby skills with
minimal tools. The 200QX frame splits apart and all of the internal
electronics are held and mounted with 8 #0 phillips screws and the
motors have just a acorn nut holding them in place. No soldering,
lengthening of motor wires or advanced skill is needed, the entire
process takes 45-60 minuets to complete.
Elevating Quadcopter Performance
SAFE™
(Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology is a revolutionary
electronic flight envelope protection system. It also offers smoother
flight capability that battles windy conditions for you and multiple
modes so you can fly with the level of protection and assistance that
suits any given moment of the flight.
Engineered with SAFE™ Technology
Camera Mode
In
camera mode, advanced stability and small pitch and roll angle limits
combine with smooth electronic self-leveling for stable image and video
capture.
Integrated LED Lighting
High
intensity internal LED lighting provides status indication as well as
orientation. The lighting system is hidden under a translucent fuselage
and provides optimal visibility during the day and night.
Powerful Brushless Motors
The
200 QX is powered by four authoritative brushless motors which provide
intense power for aerobatics, precision flight and even heavy payloads.
Thanks to this aggressive power, the 200 QX is capable of carrying
addition weight and can be flown indoors and outdoors in medium winds.
Camera Functionality
The
Blade 200 QX has been optimized for use with the E-flite® EFC-721 HD
camera. When paired with a Spektrum transmitter this intuitive camera
can accept commands to capture quality still images and HD video during
flight.
Stability (Bailout)
White LED Status
The
Stability (Bailout) Mode is similar to Stability Mode for upright
flight. In this mode the throttle is offset to run only from 51% to
100%; this throttle curve helps prevent a pilot from accidentally flying
into the ground when flipping out of inverted flight and back to an
upright position.
3d Stagility™
Purple Status LED
3D
Stagility Mode features a self-leveling characteristic that's active
when the control sticks are released. Whether you're flying inverted or
upright, the 200 QX will self-level so you can learn inverted flight
with mild assistance. When flying in this mode, 0-50% throttle is
reversed thrust and 51%-100 is positive thrust.
3D Agility
Yellow Status LED
3D
Agility Mode was designed for experienced pilots, anyone who has
mastered inverted flight in all orientations and advanced pilots looking
for a full 3D flying experience with no self-leveling. When flying in
this mode, 0-50% throttle is reversed thrust; 51%-100 is positive
thrust.
Thanks
to its integration of SAFE technology and its powerful brushless motors
the 200 QX serves as an excellent camera platform for the E-flite
EFC-721 camera. With minimal effort, you can pair this compact HD camera
with the 200 QX and capture crisp images and HD video. Control
functions allow you to take that perfect picture at just the right
moment and to stop and start recording with the flick of a switch.
*The EFC-721 is not included with this version of the 200QX
New Firmware Update
The
firmware update for the Blade 200 QX unlocks three additional flight
modes so you can experience the aerobatic potential of the 200 QX. While
the updated firmware software is free, the Blade 200 QX update cable
(BLH7840) is required to install the software to a 200 QX. Additionally,
pilots must install the appropriate propellers prior to flight in order
to experience each flight mode to its full extent.
