LOVED this frame. While it was in 1 piece. The bottom plate is just so thin. Snapped it in my first and only crash in grass. Nevertheless, I have one on order, the light weight is too good to pass up.
I ran 2 sets of motors on this frame for testing. xing 1404 4600kvs and fpvcycle 1303 5000kvs
I see alot of guys running 1404 motors but the fpvcycle 1303s are GREAT on 3s. Easily getting 3 minute aggressive acro flights.
I swapped the 1303s out after I had my fill for the 1404s and did some battery/prop testing on 4s. Blew up 2 of the fets on the jhemcu board and killed the frame.
this run was with the 1404s, 650mah 4s battery and windancer props. cant remember for sure but my dry weight was about 115-120g:

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..
