Using some parts I had around; and some cheap parts I found looked interesting.

I had around; The motors, Camera, VTX, and with $110 to spend on the rest I decided to see what I could do.

So far, I loved building it with this cheap banggood FC stack, it all went very smooth and my only issue was re-uploading fonts which I have to do anyways to get the bold font on a normal quad. (The board came with corrupted V's all over the screen and chinese overlaying it)

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..
