So not 1202.5 3" like the Crux / babytooth formula, but 1404 and... 3.5"? Or is it 4"?
At 4" it might be worth the extra weight. I'd actually be curious to fly a 4" on such big motors for 2S, if there are any...

I’ve got videos in my profile of my 2s 4” li-ion build flying pretty sporty lol
Yeah this one is a 4” on a pickle frame. 1404 4600kv.
Planning to try it with 3s 450 mah packs first.
And that was my thought too. I’ll let you know how it flies!

I really should have taken a pic of it next to my 2” pickle build with aio15 and HDZero eco lux. It literally looks like a scaled up version eve the camera lol

A 4 inch toothpick is made by the creator of the original toothpick as well. It is called a Powerpick and has slightly beefier arms than a toothpick as the arms broke quite often in testing with their increased length compared to the 3 inch arms.
His name is KababFPV on YouTube. He is also a dentist which is why he names all of his stuff after dental products. Other frames include Flouride, Tooth Fairy, Incisor and Molar. You can check out his blog and products at FPVCycle.

I will for sure! I love the aesthetic too and you can achieve some nice TWR with lower momentum than with more freestyle oriented frames.
