Tricopter Beginning Stages

Tricopter Frame:  This is the beginning stage of the tricopter I am building. A
tricopter has 2 motors in the front and one in the back that moves with a servo
to control yaw. Its purpose will be to carry a GoPro and record things from the
air at a very low cost. 

This is the center/base part of the tricopter. It will hold the KK2
Board which will stabilize the craft. It will also hold the battery
and receiver. Underneath it will be an isolated mount to hold a
GoPro. This isolated mount will have vibration dampening to
minimize vibration from the motors that can create a jello look
in the recorded footage from the GoPro. 

Sanded and holes drilled out. It is made from polycarbonate.

This is an up-close picture showing the bolts and wood
mounted to the base frame. Looks pretty good, eh? 

An advantage with the tricopter vs. a quadcopter/hexacopter/

octacopter is that it can easily be folded up and transported, as

shown in this picture.

Here is the full parts description. I kept the parts very cheap
because I am naturally very frugal. See you shortly with all
electronics attached and a ready to fly tricopter!
