I came across the Vtail frames while looking up funky drone frames. I want to build a “restomod” drone using an old-school frame design with a modern flight stack and hardware. Can anyone tell me the weights of the 500 and mini frames, without components? I need the weights to plan out which components to buy. Based on what I found, the mini frame is closer to a modern 5" frame, and the 500 is akin to a 10" frame. Has any one built the 500 as a 7" or 8" drone?

Hi LifeOfNerds
Thanks for looking at our VTail frames, the mini should be around 180g and the regular 500 would be 365g.
We also have the 500 in Large Motor (bigger diameter mount) which should be really close to the regular 500 but we don’t have the weight a the moment.
There was a VTail 400 before which was more of a 8" prop but it was selling well.
