Excited by the new DJI-Inspire1, I picked the mouse and started clicking in my CATIA. DJI is a nice machine...but not really convinced me the solution.
So, instead of moving up the arms (that requires a complex mechanical solution, so more mass&money) I decided to move up the gimbal for landing, keeping all the rest very rigid. I used a 30mm central structure (CF tube .75mm thick) that will be the rotational axis for the gimbal. A couple of servos will do the deployment work.
This thick tube will have inside the ESC32 (I know...venting is required) with a simple setup for all the rest. All bracketry done with ALM (3D Printed) in ABS, as usual.
The rest is auto-explained in the images. Maybe this design some day will come alive...
Enjoy
