Lumenier QAV250 Carbon Fiber Mini FPV Quadcopter V1.1 ARTF Kit

The Lumenier QAV250 Carbon Fiber Mini FPV Quadcopter ARTF from Lumenier is a small lightweight First Person View racing quad. The QAV250 Mini FPV Quadcopter Carbon Fiber Edition is made from 3mm 3K carbon fiber which gives excellent crash resistance, the symmetric 250mm size airframe accommodates 5″ props while still allowing for a fully functional First Person View quadcopter.

The QAV250 Carbon Fiber is designed to support a 3s LiPo battery when using the Lumenier RX2204-14 2300Kv (included), RX2206-13 2000Kv, RX1806-13 2500Kv or RX2206-11 2350Kv motors, these small motors offer a good level of thrust while maintaining the lowest weight possible. Made from carbon fiber the QAV250 is not only lightweight but offers great crash resistance which comes from the main frame board being made in one complete part including the arms, this is know as the Unibody. There are landing legs which can be installed on the arms if required. The motor mounting points have been cut into the frame arms to allow a number of motor options to fit, each arm has an additional few mm’s or material which will allow the motors to be protected from knocks and bumps.

The integrated power distribution board will allow easy connection and configuration of the electronics for the ESC’s and the First Person View system. There are two LED boards for visual navigation which assist with orientation of the craft when not using with FPV equipment, these are white and red in colour. The flight controller cover board has cutouts for SMA connectors and adapters used with FPV equipment..

The airframe of the QAV250 carbon edition is only 170 grams, this includes landing legs, LED’s and power boards. The recommended battery for the QAV250 is a 3s lipo with the maximum dimensions of 70 x 32 x 22 mm’s with a 35 C rating. The recommended all up weight on the QAV250 for take-off is 500 grams.
