This piece was inspired by the art in streets and their vibrant spirit, but also by the brutallity of the city life, like that Bosnian hipster who ate and vomited flower petals for a performance...

My first 3" build. I was very surprised by the space in this frame, it feels way less cramed than my QAVx!

I fried the Matek FC using my voltmeter to find a short in the buzzer... lesson learned: ALWAYS use a smokestopper when working on the bench. Now I am using the Lumenier Micro Lux V2, which is ok, but has one too few UARTs, so that's no current meassuring for me :(

I was to lazy to hit my maker space to print the backpack piece, and solved the problem in the same way I solve all my other building problems: using liberal amounts of zipties! Still the build that was supposed to be a sub 250g ended more around 280-300g, probably a 650mah battery would do? on the plus side the motors are really powerfull resulting in a super snappy quad!

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..
