NOTE:
The canopy that comes with this frame is kinda ugly and designed to be replaced. There are no readily available canopies that meet our preferences so we threw this canopy design on top to make sure at least the camera has some reasonably good protection. If something good comes around, we will offer that and likely drop the carbon canopy off these kits. For now youll need to provide your own battery strap.
The PowerPick is a Toothpick-like design thats not really a Toothpick. It has a more robust structure and the resulting craft will be way more powerful. Thats why its called Power Pick. Once you get up to 4 and 5, you start entering the realm of blistering speeds and enough inertia to demolish the craft. Even we dont feel comfortable flying something that would be super fragile under these conditions. The PowerPick is not a tank by any standard but its also not a super light. Its designed to use its weight efficiently to withstand minor to moderate impacts, and at least offer some component protection in the form of motor bumpers. When paired with the FPVCycle 2203 motors and 3S 1100mah batteries, this thing will be one of the most nimble FPV vehicles in existence.
Some thoughts on the 250g AUW number:
There are some countries that strictly enforce the 250g AUW policy (sorry if you live in one of those) but most dont have people walking around with scales making sure your toy is under 250g. This 250g number was taken from something a scientist may have said about a projectile during the world war II era (we think, were not even sure). Today this 250g number is completely arbitrary and means absolutely nothing. Just because youre flying something thats 249g does NOT mean you cannot cause trouble and does NOT mean you wont get in trouble for doing something dumb. On the same note, if youre flying something thats 251g, it doesnt mean youre going to go to jail. Be safe, use good judgement and dont piss off or annoy ANYONE! The proposed setup with our recommended motors, batteries and electronics on thisframe will put it a bit over the 250g mark. This has been designed to be light yet durable enough and above all, perform well. We just do not understand the rationale behind sacrificing performance for the sake of this totally arbitrary 250g number that means absolutely nothing. If youre one of those hankering for that number, you can just run smaller/lighter motors and hit that number if you wish.
