The Axiom 180 is a durable, safe, and super fun miniquad. All you need to complete the frame is a printer with a 5.5" (139mm) or wider bed and some commonly available hardware.

Including hardware, this little frame weighs about 199 grams when printed in ABS. It can fly for up to 8 minutes and it can recover from impacts that would disable most other drones. It's a fantastic trainer model if you're just getting into racing. It bounces harmlessly off of trees, cartwheels across fields, and skids across parking lots. As long as it lands right side up, it usually just takes off again. If you take this one to a racing meet you may not be the fastest but you will probably be the last one flying.

Using Loctite on the motor screws is recommended.
