SabotageRC Banagarang 6" Freestyle

Wanted to try a 6" for my second build. It flys great!

Problems I ran in to:

  • Frame a bit tight for a 3 stack
  • Had to mount the VTX antenna externally, forcing bottom mount battery
  • Battery strap is a bit tight between frame and 4in1 ESC

All these would be solved with individual ESCs on the arms.

Edit 03/09/18: Moved things around slightly and managed to fit the VTX antenna inside, ziptied to the rear standoff
Edit 08/09/18: broke an arm by flying a fair whack into a tree. Luckily I ordered the frame with 1 spare arm. Also bent the motor bell

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..
