Part two of the Phantom to F450 frame.

Here is the Frame arrived this morning.....

Next step transferring the internals over to the frame, I used double sided adhesive foam pads, seem to work pretty well and add a little isolation to the naza.

Then the ESC's leads where threaded trough the legs, and then the legs attached.

The next job was attaching the LED and usb board, again double sided foam pads where used, and positioned so that the led can be seen from below ( I intend to cover the led in a small plastic bubble to magnify the intensity) I can still plug the usb lead in here but will extend it with a male to female lead down to one of the legs.

The receiver board was next, this time I mounted this on two bolts attached to the frame with two small pieces of silicon tube as an isolator then a small blob of silicon sealant to secure it.

Next was the gps module, I did start by making a housing for this, but then thought that I should keep the gps module in pretty much the same position as when it was on the phantom. Heres a picture of the first housing.

So after measuring the position of the gps in the phantom it turns out that mounting on top of the top plate was the same position, attached again with tiny little foam pads.

Nearly done for tonight, I cut the motor wires and mounted them, ready for the ESC attachment and motor wire extensions. This is where it is up to at the moment. Just before I cut the wires I did a start up check and everything checked out even the GPS locked onto a couple of sat's, that's even in the garage, the compass was taped onto the legs. ( I intend to replicate the position of the compass on the phantom and make a small mounting pad to secure the compass to the landing legs.)

Any way here's a couple of pictures of it as it stands. wires will be extended and the esc's mounted under the arms.
