Brushless WHOOP 65mm 24g or 64mm 21g!

Tired of the same old whoop frames breaking? Whatever your poison 1s or 2s, this should fit the bill. Yet Another rendition of my past designs. An actual whoop 64mm size with 31mm props and the latest brushless motors along with all the latest technology. The smaller they are the funner they are to fly inside.
The 65mm 2s 40mm prop design has quit a few changes and rips it up inside and out. Both versions are built around the 36x36 all in one FC design. I like the BetaFPV F4 1s or 2s Brushless Flight Controllers (Frsky RX) the best.

The frames are only as strong as the material you print them with.
I only use MatterHackers NylonX. I haven't been able to break a frame yet. I can only bend them, but I don't abuse my quads I fly pretty conservatively I guess you could say indoors.

With the parts listed below you can accomplish the following weights:

64mm Whoop with 31mm props 21g awg! THE FRAME ONLY WEIGHS 4g!
65mm Whoop with 40mm props 24g awg! THE FRAME ONLY WEIGHS 4.3g!

FIRMWARE: I installed the following settings using Betaflight 3.5.4 (not entirely sure the Mockingbird settings will work on firmware above 3.5.4). After PID tuning to the Mockingbird settings YOU WILL NEVER LOOK BACK!!
