Eric Nantel 104.1 1 The Lynxmotion Multirotor Erector Set (M.E.S.) is made up of interchangeable modular components, allowing you to create your own multirotor UAV / drone; from quadcopters and hexacopters, to X8 and more. The system is based around nearly indestructible aluminum brackets which incorporates four 2-56 threaded mounting holes on the side. The plates are made from non-conductive, durable G10 composite, and the tubes are ultralight carbon fiber. This combination of parts allows UAVs made with these parts to be:

Eric Nantel 105.1 3 * Incredibly rigid (minimal flexing)
4 * Versatile (integrated mounting for upgrades)
5 * Lightweight (use of composites and Aluminum)
6 * Modular (change the frame / use different length tubes)
7 * No soldering required

Eric Nantel 104.1 9 Parts can be purchased individually, and we have created a variety of starter kits based on the modular concept. A variety of center plates and tube lengths are available.

Eric Nantel 137.1 22
Eric Nantel 141.1 23 The HQuad500 is a 500mm quadcopter built using the new Lynxmotion M.E.S. (MultiRotor Erector Set) system. The design uses our new aluminum clamps along with 16mm carbon fiber tubes.

74 **MES - Folding Propeller Hub**
75
76 The Lynxmotion MES Folding Propeller system allows you to fold each propeller into a much more compact area. Its center hub made from billet aluminum provides you with a sturdy mounting base which should not warp or break. And in the event of a crash, only only one side of the prop (blade) will likely need to be replaced.
