Design Notes
My first stab at the design would be very simple and drawing on the STARMAC project. It is basically a frame made from composite tubes which you can purchase, and connected with printed parts. Similar to the way K'NEX work. A quick look on McMaster turned up this carbon fiber tube.
A few of those and some connection pieces and you have a quad-copter frame. Actually you could use the same connectors to build just about anything.
I'm interested in other peoples thoughts, so don't be shy.
Motivation
A while back I came across some people building quad-copters. I wanted to build one, but decided that other projects needed to come first. Specifically my cnc mill and RepRap. But since my Mendel is getting close to being complete. Is there any interest in a group of people designing up a printable quad-copter?
