+At the end of 2017 I had to give in to the urge of building a bigger more powerful copter.
12
+After my first failed attempts with large copters, gaining some experience with smaller frames seemed useful.
13
+But I had built up some skills and was ready for the next step.
14
+So I built a 220mm frame copter with 2205 motors.
15
+
16
+Here are some recordings of the FPV footage.
17
+Be aware that these videos are recorded from the received signal on the ground.
18
+Not only can you see lots of interference and other HF problems, the loss of quality from the video recorder and the YouTube encoding is also very noticeable.
19
+In real-life, the picture doesn't look *that* bad.

+Using a 3D printed baseplate, I mounted the FrSky Rx as the third/top level of the PCB stack.
30
+To fit in the VTx as well, I simply zip-tied it to the bottom side of this plate.
31
+
32
+To protect the remote control antennas, I added two zip-ties to the cockpit frame, trimmed to the length of the antennas, and shrinkwrapped the antenna coax cables to the whole zip-tie.
33
+This works very well as crash protection, I never managed to destroy an antenna with this setup.
34
+
35
+The VTx Antenna pigtail is comfortably mounted with a special 3D printed piece.
36
+This way, the 5.8GHz Antenna (I'm using a Padoga v2) can easily be changed after crashes and removed for transportation.
37
+
38
+For the bottom most level of the PCB stack I used rubber vibration-insulating stand-offs.
39
+I'm not sure if they are really necessary, but they don't seem to hurt either.
40
+Everything else is mounted with rigid spacers.
