A hyperlow cg with Mid battery set up with arms on top. Love this frame, probably my favorite. This was pretty easy, board orientation is actually correct the stand off set up is just all upside down.

i did break an arm, but was a really hard hit. ive crashed it many other times though with no issues. i love it. ive flown it straight into the ground messing up a power loop and no issues haha, wouldnt say its weaker than anything else i can think of
