My goal with this build was to build a 6S 6inch all around build. I can put on 6 inch bi blade props for some mountian cruising or put on 5 inch tri blade props for proximity and freestyle. I also like the way 6 inch carries a gopro for cinematic flying. It took some time but I finally have to tune dialed in and the build is flying reliably. With a 1300mah battery I can fly for 3-4 minutes if I'm flying hard but if I just cruise I can stretch it out to almost 7 min and cover about 4 miles of ground. All up wieght is about 745 grams.
