3 Inch custom inspired by Sky`s Zypher build (https://rotorbuilds.com/build/7434). I had an Asgard flying around and some Tornados - so I went ahead and drew up this thing.

Drowned it on the 3rd battery with luckily no damage sustained.

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
