6S Racing Drone Prototype

My goal AUW was 300g without battery. It's coming in at 320g currently which is really quite disappointing :( it's a pig in terms of weight so let's see how it flies once my country gets out of lockdown and ripping 5" quads becomes legal again! Flight footage coming shortly!

Update 18/4/20: Removed 3D printed shark fin to save weight, added props and VTX Antenna
Update 21/3/20: Added 3D printed shark fin, finished soldering camera, VTX and RX to FC
Update 13/3/20: Finished ESC and power wiring, added camera and tape to motor wires

Just like mine, good weight for freestyle, not so much racing :(

haha. yeah It looks like it might be alittle hard to get these bad boys down in weight but its a good challenge. I think you are in the right direction for sure awesome build.

Thanks for the encouragement, cutting weight indeed is hard :D I'm changing from 30x30 to 20x20 as one way to cut weight!

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.
