Really like this micro frame that ticks all the boxes for me : low stack even with Runcam Split mini, top mount battery and most importantly unobstructed HD footage (no props in view), it can take 2inch, 2.5inch and 3inch props.
The frame accomodates two 20x20mm mini stacks (front one for the Runcam Split mini and rear one for the FC & 4-1 ESC).

I used mini/micro version of my favourite quad build components :
The frame is really small, body is about the same size as swiss army knife, and quite tiny when placed next to my Stingy quad.
I intend to run following props and respective batteries :
Gemfan 2040-3 (CNHL 3S 350mAh)
Gemfan 2540-3 (Dinogy 3S 600mAh)
RotorX 3044-3 (Dinogy 3S 800mAh or Acehe 3S 850mAh)
The total weight incl. the 350mAh battery is about 150g, or 120g before the battery.
All in all a very versatile micro quad with different prop choices, from tiny whooping to fast moving bullet and with full HD 60fps recording capability.
notes :
dumb question i gues but since uart 3 and 4 are fully broken out but u6 only has tx i assume your description above is out and smartaudio is on u6?
A very nice looking quad! 👍
If you don't mind me asking what do you use to color the carbon edges? Looks sharp!
thanks. I use oil based sharpies : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005QEZAFA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. 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..
Read moreWith 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..

It's freakin' gorgeous! Any reason I couldn't use ExpressLRS on something like this? I've never built before, so I ask a lot of beginner questions.
