After having flown a Babyhawk r to the absolut limit I thought it was time for something bigger. This is my first 5inch quad build from the start up.

Shoutout to greg for sharing his clean looking Marmotte! https://rotorbuilds.com/build/20854

3D printed parts are on the way to have a better mounting solution for both dji antennas. They seem ok for now but I don't know what's gonna happen in a crash! Also I am thinking about adding a gps module and a buzzer to it.

There is nothing really special about this build apart from soldering the esc ribbon cable straight to the FC to have the battery plug sticking out the front. Nano rx is just ziptied down in the middle.

Weight with Battery strapped on is about 618 grams. Gonna update it soon as our kitchen scale is known for its inaccuracy.
Update: 618 it is!

Nice toy !! Did you have no problem connecting your FC to betaflight? I'm on MAC and I can't get it recognized on my pc

thank you! Im also on a mac and I had to type in the port manually for the first time. My Laptop has two usb ports and only one works for the connection 😅

Very clean looking build. Great job. Btw. what is you dry weight (quad with props). I would like to compare it to my Marmotte.

strap weighs around 2 grams and with it on dry weight is 412 grams. How about your Marmotte?

Great build! That thing looks sick and such a clean built too!

Also shout-out to the BabyHawk-R which is such a fantastic beginner BNF.
