frame 04

This is a whole new complete frame except for the suspension springs, which hopefully mcmaster will deliver this week. The full 6mm design with standoffs and moderate kerf correction is the toughest design since the highly overengineered ABS frame 01.

Mistakes so far:
  • Some of the holes are too small.
  • The servo brackets are fitted too loosely.
  • The suspension brackets are out of spec. Totally not my fault.
Frame 05 is tentatively RC1. These cost $59 at canal. I think it will be about half that at ponoko but they seem to be having website problems at the moment. Also, starting with this build, I'm photographing every step (96 photos so far!) and writing down every single fastener required and tool used.
