Phoenix Flight Gear Carbon Fiber 200QX HD Mini-H Frame

Take your 200QX and shave grams off the weight of your stock frame. This new 2.0mm 3k twill weave solid carbon fiber frame we designed here after there was a call from the sport flyers for an even stronger frame. With the release of the flip capable firmware those of us who want to really start advanced acro maneuvers are going to be pushing the QX to new limits. We have made this heavy duty solid 2.0mm carbon fiber frame to be lighter, faster, fly longer and remove the restrictive battery compartment. We kept the frame within the same footprint as the stock frame to utilize any cases that are available for the stock 200QX. This will fit into any of those cases with little to no modification to the case foam. These mods allow you to take your 200QX to the next level.

Durability was a crucial component of the frame design. After experiencing tragic failure of the stock 200QX frame on a very early flight we first wanted to get more aggressive in our flights and the stock frame just didn’t seem up to the task. The motors mount to the carbon fiber one piece frame with just a motor spacer and M7 jam nut to keep weight down. Mounting points on the arms allow for three types of landing gear. The included standoff landing gear or RcLogger Xtreme EyeOne landing gear, both the 38mm and 79mm landing legs will work.

Lightening of the frame was easy, single piece construction with minimal hardware and material removed from the central frame for improved airflow on your 4-in-1 ESC board. Reducing the overall wind profile of the craft is another great benefit of this frame, providing faster forward flight less affected by crosswinds. Airflow improvements have greatly helped in our high stress acro flights of the 200QX and turn a stock mini quad into the high performance CarbonFiber 200QX HD Mini H.

Longer flights have also been made possible through the elimination of the battery compartment allowing for the installation of any 800-1500 2 cell batteries with a JST connector. Battery consumption is much lower with all of the bulky plastic frame gone, less motor power is required to perform arial maneuvers reducing current draw on the FET’s. With the the stock canopy frame removed we found that the ESC board runs around 50 degrees cooler, even during high current draw sport flight.

For FPV or aerial photography buffs out there we have made a board cam mounting plate. Screw on the top mount accessory plate and mount your VTX up top or, use the platform off the back of the frame to mount your electronics. With the drastic weight reduction over the stock frame adding some lightweight FPV gear won’t overload your quad. If you want to film your flight many of the action cameras available will mount right under the nose and the slots in the central frame will allow for many mounting tie points. We mounted our Mobius under and were able to film prop free video.

For the transplanting process the 200QX is hands down the easiest conversion that we have come up with to date. The 200QX frame splits apart and all of the internal electronics are held and mounted with 8 #0 phillips screws and the motors have just a acorn nut holding them in place. No soldering, lengthening of motor wires or advanced skill is needed, the entire process takes 30-45 minuets to complete.

This update to our original 200QX frame has a couple improvements to the durability of the frame, cut from 2.0mm carbon fiber improves the rigidity of the whole frame, keyed holes for the stock motors to mount in and, multiple motor mounting options. Spacing on the motor holes will accommodate a variety of motors that mount on 12-14mm spacing.
