The QAV-X was created in collaboration with and named after the World-Famous Lumenier team pilot, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/CharpuFPV\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCHARPU\u003c\/a\u003e as featured in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/2016\/09\/meet-charpu-drone-racing-megastar-doesnt-feel-like-racing\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWIRED video article\u003c\/a\u003e. This racing airframe is stripped down to the bare essentials without sacrificing strength and durability. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe QAV-X features a unique FPV camera and HD mounting system. The FPV camera is recessed partially below the top plate and protected by the top cross bar, guarding your electronics. At the same time, the camera side walls act as an angled wedge to set your HD camera on for recording, such as a GoPro, at a 35 degree angle. No need to 3D print custom mounts to angle up your camera anymore, just add some of the included neoprene foam, securely strap down your camera and fly!\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Lumenier QAV-X CHARPU\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.getfpv.com\/media\/wysiwyg\/lumenier\/lumenier-qav-x-charpu-quadcopter-title.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe main \"unibody\" 3mm plate is CNC milled out of a solid sheet of premium Lumenier carbon fiber. The outer weave of the carbon fiber runs 100% down each arm of the QAV-X (0\/90 weave), maximizing the strength of the carbon and arms. The center layers are offset at 45 degrees providing even and balanced strength throughout the entire plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe top plate includes an accessory antenna extension plate, allowing for multiple cable ties to lock down your antenna in place. No more damaging the SMA connection on your VTX. The top plate also has a cutout allowing access to your VTX button and LED displays for easy channel adjustment. The balancing bumps on the sides of the top plate make it easy to measure the center of gravity on your frame in the field to get the perfect balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEach kit includes a carbon fiber battery protector plate. The airframe is designed to strap a LiPo battery to the bottom, leaving the battery exposed during a hard landing or crash. Use this included plate to wrap underneath the battery, sandwiching the pack between the main plate and protector plate. Additionally, you can use the included Neoprene foam to create a landing pad on the bottom of the battery protector plate. This will help keep the airframe upright during take off and landings.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe airframe comes with high quality aluminum hardware. All screws are premium, black oxide steel. The spacers have a textured grip surface treatment, which facilitates holding of the spacers during assembly and servicing of the airframe. The spacers are also 28mm tall vs the standard 35mm. This gives the airframe a sleek, low profile look.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded with the QAV-X CHARPU kit is the popular Lumenier 4Power power distribution board which can be fitted with an optional Pololu voltage drop-down circuit (to 12v or 5v), and a XT60 pig-tail. Like the QAV210\/180, the QAV-X kit enables mounting of small FPV cameras such as the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.getfpv.com\/lumenier-cm-650-mini-650tvl-camera-26x26mm.html\"\u003eLumenier CM-650\u003c\/a\u003e in a fully encased assembly which protects the FPV camera during crashes and enables pointing the FPV camera at a wide variety of viewing angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul class=\"decimal\"\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFull 3K Carbon Fiber airframe featuring a solid 3mm main plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDual purpose FPV and HD camera mounting solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eCompact size for 5\" propellers, 214mm motor to motor.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Oxide steel screws\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eEasy grip black anodized spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple motor mounting holes to fit a variety of motors (M3 and M2 screw mounting patterns).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\"Bumpers\" on the end of the arms to protect the motor during a crash, just like the QAV250.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Lumenier 4Power power distribution board and XT-60 Pig-Tail to power ESCs and FPV flight electronics.
