My first build ever, I'm new here so go easy on me. Feeling a bit trashy.

Spent a lot of time taking this guy apart, and getting everything situated in the frame properly.
Didn't realize how tight of a frame this TransTEC Frog Lite 218mm would be, definitely looking forward to a frame with more space in my next build!

Either way, it flies great, and I'm loving my foray into this awesome hobby.

Cheers!

I marked the UART I used for my receiver (SPM4648 - No Telemetry) in the attached image in neon green (RX4, 3.3V, and Ground) , also added images of my BetaFlight configuration. Make sure to set the UART4 to Serial, in the ports tab, also select the receiver under configuration tab, lastly select TAER1234 in Receiver tab

Mar 04, 2021

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.
