Introducing the Armattan Beaver! This one is three years coming. It's the longest Armattan have ever spent working on a frame. Well, to be frank, the 2020 situation made them put a pause on development for a little while. Nonetheless, this design has taken a very long time and it has gone through many more iterations and prototypes than any other Armattan frame before. The best way to describe what the Beaver is about is probably to look at our design goals. Strength: This frame needs to be strong enough to be worthy of lifetime warranty. The frames need to be able to take a beating. Thicker arms than any other previous frame, as well as thoughtful crash-protection provisions make the Beaver Armattan's strongest design to date. Noise: Three or four years ago, blackbox readings and tuning were not much of a thing. Things have changed a lot since then. The Beaver is Armattan's first five inch design for which a big emphasis on reducing noise reaching the flight controller was devised. This is by far the stiffest frame Armattan have ever made. The top plate is also using additional anchoring points adding stiffness throughout the entire chassis. Easier to tune for newcomers and more satisfying for folks who strive to have the perfect tune. Modern provisions: As always, Armattan have tried to adapt to new electronics on the market in order to provide good building options for a variety of controllers, video links and RC links. The Beaver is their most versatile model to date. Cameras have gotten so small. Large cages seen on our previous models are no longer needed. This model has the smallest and lightest camera cage Armattan have ever used on a design for five inch propellers. This allowed them to better balance the frame strength and weight distribution. This takes us to the next goal. Weight: Stiffer, stronger, smarter, NOT heavier. 126g. The weight is on par or less than previous Armattan 5 inch frames. Ease of maintenance: Only one bolt needs to be removed to replace an arm at the field. As for the rest of the build, there's nothing complicated or overly complex to work on. It's a breeze to work on. Looks: Finally, and always last on the list of priorities, aesthetics. Armattan always try to make good looking frames, but function comes before fashion, always. The Beaver is the best frame they've ever made and it looks the part. We chose the classic orange look, reminiscent to the iconic Armattan Chameleon. The Beaver is a completely different beast, however. It's a critical evolution that encompasses their design goals, five years later, in 2022.
