A while ago I ordered a bunch of new parts for my micro H-Quad and I got some additional parts for my SSHQuad v2. Then right before I started building my MHQ flying fpv on my sshquad I hit a wooden post and the legs on my quad, zip tied on flew off. I found one but lost the other. Not a big deal and I built my self a platform to take off of easily without the legs.
But landing on it is hard and I still would like something to keep the battery from hitting the ground just in case.
So I went to Polakium Engineering site to get more legs and when I went there I saw that he had a new v3 frame and new legs. So I thought why not get those and a new frame just because. I had still intended at this time to just put one of the new legs on my v2 frame. Fast forward and I get them it seems they are a bit smaller(though they weigh more?). So now I thought maybe I should just rebuild everything on the new frame which is why I'm upgrading to the v3 frame and moving/adding new components.
Also side note I later realized that the v2 landing legs are still on the site to order..I may still get them to put on the v3 since they are bigger and lighter. Also what prompted this build now, since I was ok with every thing on the v2 frame, was busting one of the motors putting the stick scaling to 200...I just wanted to do some flips.
Now the specs,
I'm going to be using my 2s batteries but I upgraded the connection to xt60 from jst. The ESC specs say I can use 3s so I may attempt to use my 3s lipos after I've had a handful of flights on 2s.
I'm also going to put fpv on this one like the v2 frame using my FatShark Teleporter fpv set.

Now the specs,
- T-Motor ESC 6A w/SimonK
- T-Motor MT1306-10 KV3100 Version 2.0
- Kk 2.1.5 Board (ordered another acro naze32 but I think I'll stick with the kk for now)
- Polakium Engineering SSHQuad v3 frame
