This 3 inch was my first ever fpv drone build and endured lots of abuse during its lifetime.
(until I eventually lost it to a long range adventure xD)

So much so, that I actually ordered two frames after loosing my quad and am currently building V2 of this.
The build was designd arround a Split Micro 3 Camera for HD recording, which was painted black as I couldn't stand the runcam orange.
I aimed to be sub 250g auw, but as I didnt want to cut too many corners it ended up a few grams above that mark.
