OK, there's all these $200-$1000 frames made out of 1000 pieces of g10/fr4/aluminum/carbon/whatever and look like they will shatter into over 9000 pieces as soon as they hit the ground. But you never see those pics, WHERE ARE THEY.



I want your crashed multirotor photos here, all of them, post them up!
The more damage the better.

To get you started, here's a crash pic of non-ridiculous frame:


I think to fix it all was needed is to swap 2 towel bars.

Fixed.

It would be better if some explanation about the crash is provided, kinda like wound stories from a war. And I hope I won't need to contribute pictures of my frames here .

Props come off in flight

Resize pics pls.

Running the wires through the unbreakable CF tubes without a stress release point and soldered directly to the clone MK BLESC's and power distribution ring.
Notice the one short arm and the wave effect

I never crash

Hi Dauq Regin, this doesnt surprise me at all, Ive bought one of these HK quads and its pretty flimsy ($14 doesnt buy much I guess...). But this is truly a case of 'rekitting' the kit.... nice pile of bits you got there .....

I made the same mistake.
Pulled the wires clean out of one motor as well.

Not expensive in cost, but lots of time invested.







Now I have a quad with "crumple zones". This one survived a 40 foot drop from a tree with just a broken prop and a few of the cheap nylon standoffs broken. It looked like hell, but was back together and flying in just a few minutes.

They're custom. I designed them in solidworks and had them cut. can send you the design if you wish. pm me.

OK, I know there's a crashed frame a day if not more here, where's those pics?
