Hey, hey. Welcome to the quad club Kyle... Frame looks ok, not that I'm an expert on quads....lol..

Hey Kyle nice one mate,

Looks interesting.
Just be careful which motors you end up getting.
Being a 230 you may not be able to fit 6" props so you will need the higher kv motors 2300 or higher.

Nice one mate.
Look forward to your thoughts.

Nice one Kyle:) cant wait to see the pics:)

i ordered the naze32 fc and got the SunnySky X2204S KV2300 Brushless Motors with the velotech 12a esc's with 1a bec plus i got 2 glacier 1550 3s packs the frame comes with 5x3 props i got the esc's for half off with the purchase of the motors on buddyrc... thanks guys i should have everything but the fc by saturday got the 2-3 day shipping should have the frame in next day or 2 can't wait to get it flying then later to get my fpv gear on it this will be my fourth quad i use to have a team blacksheep tbs discovery quad awhile back sold it right after i built it needed money i have my blueskyrc spiderx quad now with multiwiicopter paris board and gps mag i also have three multiwii fc boards i built and also have a v1 dji naza fc w/gps.... definitely will get lots of pics...

here is a few pics of my quad and electronics minus the naze32 afroflight fc still waiting on it..

That looks way cool:)

Nice Kyle..

Looks good Kyle. Like I told you before, this is the quad that I was going to get before I saw the Dart 250. Because my Dart 250 was about $20 more than your Diatone quad, if something "bad" happens to my Dart 250, I'll probably look at the Diatone frame.

it seem to be pretty nice quad so far the way i am soldering it up right now seem to be the cleanest quad i have had so far

that quad has the built in PDB, doesn't it? If so, are you using it?

yes it does and yes i am makes everything alot cleaner here are some more pics

here are few more i just waiting on the fc now

Looks awesome Kyle, nice one

thanks tony the fc came in today man that thing is tiny

I like the idea of those arms with the internal connections.
I wonder how they fair in a crash?

Really nice Kyle:) good question Lee:) will be great to see video of it flying:)

Waiting on the fc standoffs right now my carbon fibre gemfan props came in today
