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 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.

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