Inspire 2 CF Arm Diameter

[Aerial-Pixel]

Ok all you Inspire 2 guys, are the carbon fiber arms still 25mm in diameter like the Inspire 1? I'm designing a Strobon Cree mount and was hoping it would fit both.

Personally I'm not sure. Never owned an i1. Can you explain what a strobon cree is? What it does?

A very bright LED.

Yeah it's an LED strobe light for night flying or better daytime visibility.

I use Lumecube's and they work great!

I love Lumecubes too but these are only $19 and much smaller and lighter. They are still blindingly bright too.

I think they are looking pretty good! Anybody know the diameter of the Inspire 2 CF Arms? Both tubes if you know them thanks!

Measured my Inspire 2:
Main CF arm tubing is 30mm diameter
CF tubing connecting motors to main arm is 22mm diameter

Thanks! Not the answer I was hoping looks like 2 different sets of mounts will be needed.

Ok, here's the final design, I decided to make the arm strobe mounts go on the 22mm arms instead of the larger (25mm on the I1 and 30mm on the I2), this way they fit on both Inspire 1 and Inspire 2. The tail mount only works on Inspire 1. Here's a video of what I came up with:
