Product Overview

Note: This kit just includes the frame - no motors or electronics included.

The Speed Addict 210-R (V2) is the successor to the original design that brought to the market back in 2015. The original 210-R quickly become one of the most popular racing and freestyle frames in the industry. Catalyst did not let the popularity of the V1 throttle their desire for perfection. The new 'V2' is the result of customer feedback, team pilot testing/input, and additional experience gained from the development of other designs such as the SuperLight line of frames and The Stigg. The goal of this new design is the ultimate uber delicious freestyle machine. Much Uber. Much delicious. Many of the same design principles that contribute to great flight characteristics for a racing specific drone also translate over to freestyle. Catalyst Machineworks was the first in the industry to use centralized battery placement and a "low profile" top deck. Our new V2 continues with that same design philosophy

Place as much mass as possible close to the axes of roll and pitch rotation.
Keep AUW "all up weight" low as possible while allowing for high power output. Dry frame weight is just over 100 grams.
Place the center of gravity in the middle of the craft and sitting ON the same plane as the props.

Difference between V1 and V2

Frame price is reduced
Overall crash durability has increased
Carbon fiber finish changed from gloss to matte
Carbon fiber durability increased. We are using a superior material (less brittle)
Fastener color changed from blue to black
The lower PDB bay has been removed
Overall weight has decreased. The V2 is a 4mm frame that weighs less than the V1 3mm option
Max camera angle has been increased to 70 degrees
Camera cage uses same cam side plates as the SuperLight frames. This allows either the standard HS1177 or Runcam style cameras to fit in the same mount
Mounting slots were added to the base plate inside the camera cage. This means nearly any FPV camera can be used in the 210-R (V2) by using the camera's included mounting hardware
The FPV antenna SMA mounting design was updated to drastically increase crash toughness
RX antenna mount design was improved
Lipo velcro strap slots were removed in favor of a more efficient design
Flight controller mounting location was updated to allow for large footprint "All-In-Ones" to be used
