Been thinking about building a Cinewhoop for some time now, but really didn't want to folk out for complete rig. Bite the bullet eventually and bought the Shedrones Squirt V2 frame, realizing my GEP-RC Sparrow (link below) components would fit nicely, I teared the parts from it and installed them into the Squirt frame.
The GEP-RC Sparrow is really neat RTF build, with impressive power to weight ratio i was fairly confident it would perform adequately, its over powered will apparently clock 170km/h!
Build weight :
230g - frame/components
370g - " " + battery/GoPro Hero Session 5
*planning to swap out the FC and ESC's for a hobbywing stack shortly..!

(this is the V2 version, I had the V1 of the GEPRC Sparrow.., the parts below are the approximate equivalents)

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..
