Frame is Featherlight 3 custom from Falcon Multirotor, custom cut arms to support 1407 motors. Using 15mm standoffs/cam supports. Configured in a WideX configuration. Currently using custom 6S packs made from the listed 5S packs.
GoPro weight is almost the same as the 5s 460mAH RotorX 5S packs, making for a nice balanced build.

GoPro mount from Brain3D, same mount for other frames with 30.5x30.5 standoffs.

Motor/Battery guide:
4S 1407 3600kV-4100kV (don't recommend GoPro)
5S: 1407 2800kV-3600kV (2800kV are slow putters, 3600kV gets hot)
6S: 1407 2600kV-3200kV (2600kV isn't available on the market currently)
