DJI F450 frame, clone?

[WoodiE]

Looking for a DJI F450 frame for a possible future build. Looking around and find this F450 frame for $13.02. Looks just like the DJI but I was thinking there was a "DJI" lettering on the main board, maybe now?!

Is this a clone or the real thing? If real I'm going to jump on that for sure!

I'd guess that it's a clone. However, the most expensive part of the quad is the electronics especially the flight controller.

I'd say that's still a good deal on a glass-reinforced polymer frame.

One of those to good to be true deals I guess. I've heard the clones are more brittle than the legit frames.

What's the best price on a legit frame?

^^Yep, the clone frame are made of a different material that's really brittle. My F450 has taken some nasty crashes, and I've broken one arm total.

And I bought mine from Atlanta hobby. Good people to deal with.
