I saw that you had put your VTX antenna in the description although I was just wondering besides the crossfire what is the one that you have running in the back?

Completely depends on your thumbs.

I'll fly 60-65mph for 2 to 2.5 miles out and back with dual 2200 5S.

This is purpose for 2-3 miles outand back at a good clip.

Looks like a great cut! Chamfered arms or did you do that by hand? Do they cut to order, as in single frames - or is there a minimum volume? Great videos btw.

These ones were chamfered by them.

You can do single frames. Join the Mid Range Mountain Surfers group on FB for more info. ;)

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..
