Rebuilding the Widowback! This was a fun build, trying to make a racing capable V-tail. It came out way prettier and faster than expected.

Where did you get that frame?

When you set that quad up on betaflight, do you have to do anything special because of the angle of the motors in the back? And does it fly differently?

It does fly very differently. It is a very swoopy quadcopter so to speak. The roll and yaw also feel very different as you have to adjust both if you want to do a perfect roll or a perfect yaw. It is a different feel but fery fun. You also need to lower the camera angle as when you get it to high, you will be throttling up and moving downward instead of up. I highly reccomend trying it. The otnly setup you need to do is tell Betaflight that it is a V-Tail.

Not quite sure on the angle. I think it is around 30 degrees!

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..
