Hey there peeps! been modding parrot drones for a while, I have an upcoming Bebop 2 'rescue drone' that I picked up for 30 euros with at minimum a frame replacement needed. Prior to that I had owned 2 other bebops 2s (1 fell in the sea due to chinese prop exploding, 2 motherboard was spontaneously bricked beyond repair) and 2 bebop 1s, the one I am modding now and another I tried to mod but with less tools and knowledge it was shoddy and went down the drain kinda. As I will use the bebop 2 for the main drone (big battery upgrade and some firmware tweaks to support the hero 10 I will hang from it) I am left with a bebop I wont use. Well, today I found myself bored. Stripped it down, removed and replaced with custom parts everything I could to keep the weight down and add rigidity (rubber things are gone) and there we go, Without battery 249 gram bebop 1! Used 3d printed legs, struts instead of the rubber things that I welded to the frame, and little c clips to hold the antenna wires, Here it is! and all the parts I removed 
, battery and battery strap add another 89 grams, so 338 grams total! 82 grams saved from the official weight!, around 18-19% for the statistics folks , The other mod failed because I went way to extreme with the weight loss and removed more stuff such as the internal frame supports,the drone's hood, half the magnesium back plane off the motherboard, made a new camera mount ect. A lot more scuffed, this should be actually usable and perform really well! Rest of the weight was from the removal of battery plastics, smaller parts and slightly smaller battery.
