I decided to try anodizing my Armattan Rooster a blurple color and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.

The build consists of the BetaFlight F4 flight controller, Armattan 30a ESCs (D-Shot 600), Emax LS2206-2700kv motors, Runcam Swift 2, Eachine VTX03 w/ SMA connector, AXII antenna, LemonRx DSMX satellite, and HQ V1S 5x4.3x3 props.

Nice build! I love the purple; I want to try that same color on the Chameleon Ti I'm planning. Do you have a link to the SMA rear mount? Or did you just make that up yourself? I like the idea of running the LiPo pigtail out the back and I don't think I'll be able to do it with the stock plate.

OMG that deep purple looks amazing! Any chance you remember the voltage and electrolyte used?

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
