Key Features
Camera Protection
The AOS 7 uses 2.0 mm Carbon Plates to hold and protect the camera. These are stiffer, lighter and cheaper to replace than aluminum or titanium.
The camera plates include 2 standoffs to maximise durability and a cutout pattern that supports DJI O3 and all typical19-20mm FPV cameras.
Go Pro Mount
The GoPro mounting pattern on the AOS 7 is identical to the AOS 5 and AOS 5.5 so any mount designed for any of these frames will fit and work perfectly on the others.
The GoPro is secured by 4x M3 screws into aluminium standoffs so you can be confident that the mount will not be going anywhere in a hurry.
Arms
The AOS 7 uses the same distinctive truss design for the arms as the AOS 5 but takes it to the next level. Each arm is made from two parts that interlock together. This allows both struts of the arm to be cut with the fibers aligned along the length of the part maximising the material stiffness and strength in every part of the arm. The truss design provides enormous torsional stiffness and also allows two particularly harmful resonant modes to be individually modified to separate them in frequency.
Truss structures are inherently very strong as they convert bending loads into compression and tension in the individual members. Carbon is much stronger in pure tension and compression than in bending.
Y-shaped motor protectors minimize the risk of damage to those expensive components. Should you ever need to replace an arm, there are only two screws to undo and neither are shared with your electronics.
Top and Bottom Plates
Both of these plates are 2.5mm thick to provide an optimal balance between strength, stiffness and weight. The cut outs in the top and bottom plate of the AOS 7 are tuned using finite element analysis to preserve as much of the bending and torsional stiffness of the plate as possible whilst minimizing weight.
There are mountings for three 30.5x30.5mm or 20x20mm stacks with plenty of space in between for the receiver, capacitor and other accessories.
