Sweet build! How do you like the 3D canopy? I think its the first one I've seen for the Mongoose. Does it fit the Axii Stubby antenna? (https://www.getfpv.com/lumenier-stubby-axii-5-8ghz-antenna-rhcp.html) I'm not sure if you're using the stubby or the mmcx/ufl version

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
