This is my first ever build! very happy with it, and it flies amazingly! took me 3 months of learning, decision making, re-decision making and then a whole host of hurdles to cross to get everything to fit into this slammed frame. in the end a few laser cut parts allowed me to mount 30x30 parts onto the rear 20x20 mounting holes for the RX and VTX and the LED controller/BEC mounted in front of the main stack behind the cockpit. I went all out as I had the cash at the time (I don't anymore haha) I just love the Rhubarb & Custard colour scheme! With matching motors, Props, FPV cam, Kwad skids, motor wire sheath, handmade battery straps and Brain3D custom colour full accessory kit. not got the session mount on yet as I don't have the session yet. pictured with it on once then removed again.
