Decided to build a 3" quad for a couple of reasons. First, it seems like the 3" builds are becoming very popular and I was curious to check it out and second, my 2.5" is fun to fly but too floaty because it's so light. This will give me the best of both worlds, I hope. Did a quick hover/punch out test with an uncharged battery for my 2.5" (450mah 3s) and the 650mah 4s batteries for this build should be here today so I can do a proper test. I'll update once I have finalized my power connector (need to see the best way for it with the correct battery so I left it long) and do a proper maiden flight. Also need to see what prop works best with it so I have 3 to try. I think this will be a kick ass quad to fly.

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
