We've been asked many time to design something smaller for 65mm props. We had been reluctant for two reasons. The first reason was that there were not many options for small motors and even props for quite some time. By now the popularity of such weight class has brought about many more options in terms of motors, but also good options for 16 x 16 stacks that can run such small models well. The second reason is that we did not want to do a minimalistic frame with a POD style 3D printed or plastic canopies, as we intended on using a top mount battery. Our goal was to make something light, strong, and it had to have a top mounted battery. With Jason Hay's help, we came up with a number of solutions to keep weight down while meeting our design goals. Introducing the Armattan Tadpole.
