Sometimes yiu just build something and are awed by the result.

This is a Detroit Multirotor Company BeastMode all standard, but something about it feels special.

The Motolab Tempest 1.2 is an awesome board, but usually created ugly builds because you had to cross ESC power wires. The new 1.3 fixes that problem and makes the builds much, much nicer.
