The X500 V2 is an affordable, lightweight, and robust carbon fibre professional drone kit that is easy to assemble. It is compatible with various flight controllers such as the Holybro Pixhawk series, Durandal, Pix32 V5, etc. This is the V2 edition of the Holybro’s X500 frame and it has numerous improvements compared to the previous model.

The X500 V2 Frame Kit is made with full carbon fiber twill, with carbon fiber tube arms supported by the newly designed fibre reinforced nylon connectors. These fixings have convenient notches on both motor and body sides, providing a much easier & more straightforward installation. The landing gear consists of 16mm & 10mm diameter carbon fibre tubes with connectors that has been thickened and strengthened. The spacing between top and bottom carbon fiber plates has been increased to provide easier access. The platform board now has mounting holes for GPS & popular companion computers such as the Raspberry Pi 4 & Jetson Nano. The adjustable battery mounting board has been enlarged to support bigger batteries for a longer flight time. The rail mounting system is ready to take a whole host of camera mounts and gimbals for various applications. There is an optional mount for various depth cameras such as the Intel RealSense series & Structure Core Depth Cameras (purchase separately). All tools for installation are provided in box.

The frame lends itself to being a fantastic development platform for student projects, engineers doing R&D, hobbyists wishing to build their first drone, or aerial photographers looking for an alternative to DJI - allowing them to build a custom platform to suit their specific requirements.

The X500 V2 Quadcopter is available as either the frame kit on its own or as the ARTF set which includes the X500 V2 Frame Kit with motors, ESCs, power distribution boards and propellers preinstalled - please select as required. We also now sell the Holybro X500 V2 Quadcopter PX4 Development Kit which includes FC, GPS and Telemetry radio kit.
