Always wanted to build a "plus" motor layout and once i saw the Gordo Plus - I couldn't resist. Actually, I wanted the Shendrones Rapture, but damnson, it was expensive, so I settled on this little beut!! I bought it sometime ago and put some work into it, but now that it's winter, I was able to finish it up. Of course, the weather sucks so I doubt I'll be able to fly it outside anytime soon... Maybe a roadtrip to somewhere warm???

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..

With 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..
