I wanted to build a freestyle 3" quad with a top mounted battery. There is no 3" Chameleon frame available, so I got the Lisamrc LS - X140 frame, put a set of Emax 1106 - 4500 Kv on it and boy it is a rocket.
Because plain carbon is dull, I customized it a little.
When test flying it in the house, I found out the motor protectors don't supply enough air flow to cool the motors, so I had to take them off.
Makes you wonder why they even sell those.
It has absurd power on 4s, maybe a little too much, but it flies like a dream.
Packed with a SQ 12 camera and ready to freestyle with this beauty.

Whats your flight time? Im also wondering if you can put escs on the arms? can you measure the arm's width?
Nice build, check those 3 inch BQE frames. I got the SX3u and it's fast as hell, top or buttom mount. And can even carry a gopro session.
I checked them, but how serious should I take them if they don't take the effort to weigh the frame and put that on their site?
And usually it's the motors that make it fast, not the frame.
I just can't stand it if they don't supply a weight of a frame. For me that is a huge argument to get it or not.
But they look cool.
Thx for the tip

FPV has had quite a journey. Just a few years ago we started racing drones around a track and doing flips over trees, but professional cinematic FPV is a more recent development. DJI has always owned the drone photography market, but smaller acrobatic drones are starting to enter the market. They have the advantage of close proximity flight indoors and around people. There's more artistic freedom and..

For the longest time we've been limited to 3 to 4 minutes of flight and lots and lots of batteries. With more efficient motors and frame designs it's now possible to push the envelope much further. This guide will walk you through the process of building a micro long range quad capable of flying 8-30 minutes and more than 4km. The build is moderately difficult, but with the right tools and steady hands..

hey one thing i found is that when albert kim did a review on the frame, he was concerned about the screw holes for the side plates on the bottom plate cause it was soo thin....has yours break from a bad crash?
Mine is still intact, the thing is so light, so it's hard to break.
