My 2nd quad but first build and this thing is a tank! My first quad is a 5" Cl-1 a friend built and the frame broke very fast. Recently replaced it and broke again. I'm still learning so I crash alot. And the 3" Phreak takes it.
I've hit a pole head on full speed(4s 1500mah) and only broke the camera.
Failsafe above a 10story building and free fell onto asphalt.
Hit a concrete wall cruising pretty fast.
Lots of parking garage crashes.
I also let all my friends that never flown try it out and disarm them when they got too high / far.
A motor finally died today. I had 1 minute to order Amazon's same day delivery so I bought it then realized they were 3750kv instead of my 4100kv i had on there. Since I'm changing all 4 motors now I might as well post the build.
Edit: Motor burnt because of bad ESC. Ordered replacement ESC

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class!
