This is my 3" Apus Toothpick project that I drew from scratch. All the parts are free to download on the links bellow.

It's running Betaflight 4.1.4 with JESC 24khz on ESC's. You can download my tunning on: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1tLUWnkZgFDAVDRS1T3xIYwOmMTNLvL3S

It flies with 3S or 4S LiHV Lipos. The Dump included a tunning for each battery.
