FlyfishRC Volador II VD5 O3 Deadcat FPV Long Range T700 Frame Kit – Black

We are pleased to announce the second version of our 5” frame, Volador II. Thanks to the numerous suggestions and feedback (special shoutout to Ryan Harell and Kai Lin) from V1 users and testers, we’ve made many optimizations in the V2 version to better suit the needs of pilots.

The Volador II Frame maintains high compatibility and a simple construction design, equipped with the necessary accessories for easy, convenient, and organized assembly.

The Volador II VX Frame comes in the Squashed X configuration for maximum control, while the Volador II VD Frame features the popular Deadcat style configuration with no props in view. It is compatible with a variety of analog and HD systems on the market, and the independently detachable arm and tight-fitting structure design minimize frame resonance. The high-quality TPU parts are cleverly designed for a more integrated and neat installation. We guarantee, that pilots with the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder of any degree will be highly satisfied as Volador II is the only frame on the market that allows users to have the cleanest looking builds possible.

We have also designed a silicone shock-absorbing camera plate insert specifically for the DJI O3 Air Unit camera installation, that’ll eliminate any possible jello in your DVR, while also being compatible with 19mm/20mm format cameras.
The frame is made of high-strength CNC aluminum alloy parts and highest quality T700 carbon fiber sheets, with a super smooth surface and uniform chamfered edges. Say no to damaged cables and battery straps. And, well, it just looks aesthetically more pleasing, doesn’t it?

The redesigned battery pad with an added grid has now an even better anti-slip effect and is using a stronger adhesive. The XT60 connector integrated at the tail of the frame eliminates the probability of the power lead getting damaged by props in a crash, while allowing easy, single hand plugging of the battery.

The frame comes with all the accessories needed for analog and HD builds, and is equipped with hardware with Loctite threadlocking agent for an additional reliability. The tight structure design fully minimizes resonance.

Great efforts have been made on the TPU parts. They fit the frame perfectly, improve the overall durability of the frame, look very smooth and, oh my, the Tropical Mix Set is just out of this world! This is something we take a lot of pride in!

The new battery anti-slip pad is more “sticky” and has better adhesion.
Added keystone to even further reduce arm vibration.
Added bottom screw gasket.
Added motor wire protection tubes.
The four middle screws on the top plate are now countersunk and sit flush, to eliminate possible battery damage during crashes.
The new TPU arm protectors are now lighter and allow for easier disassembly.
All models now come with two types of TPU antenna mount (with or without GPS mount).
The thickness of the bottom and middle plates has been adjusted to 2.5mm.
The connection structure between the arm and the clamp plate is slightly adjusted to distribute stress better.
XT60 plug cutout on the top plate is now symmetrical, allowing installation of the XT60 in both orientations.
