Finished machining these today, adding the pocket to fit the carbon fiber arm tube. Drilled the corners first so that I could machine the rest of the pocket square with a .0625 end mill. Everything fits pretty well, which can be challenging at this scale.
This weekend I hope to draw up the center portion of the quad, basically an "X" shape that will hold the arms, control board, and underneath it, the flight battery.
I still have to modify the brushless speed controllers as well. More on that when I get to that stage.

MQX Brushless Motor Mount
Here are some of the first models I've created in Alibre Professional. They are some of the parts needed to make a brushless version of the MQX, a micro quadrotor that comes stock with brushed geared motors. I'm using this as a first project to get used to the CAD and CAM in Alibre.
