ZBROY Prometheus - Full Titanium 5" Drone Frame

Well now I am thinking  Thinking  maybe I could fabricate my own frame out of aluminum  Tongue   

I know, its not titanium, but hey, it would be metal  Wink  You know, like a cheap "knock off"  Dodgy

Might be interesting  Huh   Different, none the less  Tongue

Looking sexy is one thing, but puttin' out is another. Question is, what does it do for you.  Huh

I am a form follows function type of guy. If it don't perform, I care less what it looks like.
Plus, the frame is too heavy for my liking. I also think that the motor bell housing is too close to the vertical arm.
If I had that frame, I would either flip the frame, or mount the motors on the bottom so the arm didn't get in the way.
To me, that is just  a bad design element which could easily have been remedied early on. I am surprised no one caught that.

Anyway, it is nice to look at. You could hang it on the wall as a decoration.  Rolleyes

i FLY??????????  LOLLL I can't believe you said that.  So awesome.   ROFL 

I actually think what I said was harsh so I apologize for that.  But man when you are worrying about your motors getting too hot and needing a lc filter, that's kinda no bueno.

Hi Ronin,

Well, I am shy and bashful, you know  ROFL ROFL ROFL

I don't think you were too harsh. Man, they need to know that the frame isn't the performer that they thought it was. 

Personally, I always had my doubts. There were a thing or two that I didn't really like about it. I never liked that vertical arm sitting that close to the motor bell housing. In fact, it actually limits the size of motors that you can run on that frame. {or maybe that was the intent}  Dodgy   I was curious to see how it actually did in a real life build. 

I thought about flipping the frame or just making it a "pusher" so the arm wouldn't interfere with the motors. Now, if they had designed it right, you would be able to flip the arms either way.  Just sayin'...

High Five

I haven't seen hardly any videos of this frame flying, and only one from a mainstream reviewer (Drainman). So this frame is either too expensive for most people or it is causing too many problems and/or taking too much time getting it to fly properly.

It's a nice looking frame, but I can think of better things to spend $170 on.
