Not my build. hope this is allowed but I just like logging all my birds here.
This is my third BNF. Some hypetrains are just too irresistable. First was the babyhawk-r, second was the mobula7. Was always watching Dave_C's work with the micro explorer and when he announced the flywoo bnf version I had to pounce given the incredible price I couldn't pass it up.
It's my first LR specific build and first GPS bird which is pretty fascinating.

Ordered from Flywoo direct 15 August 2020 and arrived 10 September 2020

The maiden flight

since i went digital and there is a PAL bug with the AV IN on the dji goggles where if the signal gets low or drops it takes around 30 seconds for the goggle to come back online, I've decided to change the runcam nano 2 out for a micro eagle (yeah heavier, but the view...) Had to remove the camera protection TPU print. While I was at it I removed all the tpu guards at the ends of the arms. Really dont need any of these guards on a long range cruiser unless you're learning to fly. I suppose the tpu for the digital version may have fit. The camera is massive so it was a tight fit. Needed to use the front hole. I tried all the other holes including mounting it upside down and looks like this is the only way it will fit, poking out a bit in the front.

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..

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..
