So I started building this with the intention of just trying it out and then dissassembling to use its parts on other builds.... but then it sort of evolved into something more awesome.
The reason why the motor wires are so horribly run is primarily due to that reasoning... I wanted connectors because I expected to move the motors... and the wires are left looong because I was going to throw the motors on a toothpick or something.
I have a few things to note in this build
This thing is super cool! I need to finish tuning it though. I do the KababFPV thing and just try differnet firmware/preset tunes. Right now I'm on EmuFlight and will post back when I get results!

What kind of performance and flight time are you getting out of this setup? Interested in building one and trying to decide between a higher KV setup like yours with tri-blade props or a lower 12000KV 0802 and some quad blade props on 2S.
Those screws might "clatter" against your top plate, are you having any weird noises, or quirky behavior from your FC?
AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

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..

Loving this little frame. Was looking to build another whoop with RunCam Split 3 NANO WHOOP. Now wondering if it would work on this frame?
By chance, would this frame fit any AIO whoop boards fit, Thanks for your time!
sorry, this frame only fits 16x16 stacks unfortunately. I tried making an adapter but it wasn't working out.
Thanks! I just received my frame today and its smaller than I thought. Looks awesome! Shopping for parts now, and 16x16 1S harder to find than I thought.
Just finished the build. Holy shit...lol. I selected my parts wrong, I tried to go small, but barely made it. I had to add 2mm stand off to fit top plate. lol. I did not maiden yet. I want to make sure I'm running the right battery. Which 2S battery did you run?
