PolySter build on The One Ten frame

This build is a first iteration of building with a 16 x 16 stack for poly S builds (2S and probably higher in the future). For a first attempt it came out pretty well. Its a tight build but greatly reduces the frontal area compared to the whoopster style builds.

Frame: 110 mm MTM , 2 mm thick. This frame will mount both the typical whoop 3 hole motors and the 4 hole 11xx.

HK-AERIAL VTOL Aug 31, 2019

Zip tie canopy? I absolutely love that. To me the zip tie is completely meant to be used on a quad, and this is a great example of that. A-freaking-plus!

Update on the zip-tie canopy:

HK-AERIAL VTOL Dec 21, 2019

See, I like that it is all suspension yet rigid. This is the solution to something I have been mulling over: those toothrip hex frames on Armattan's site don't have canopies, so what to do. Doing something like this might be the best way for me to make that happen. Thanks for the update!

i just tried 3s 1102 rx3020 ( the real one, not the clone one ) today. it doesn't have much control but the speed is insane for 1102 motors. i believe it's the fastest combo. and i like this build of yours, so i want to build one with those props. mine right now is 44g dry, i hope i can bring it down to 40g with your build.

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

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. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
