Sept. 2019 (Pink Mahal)

I decided to log most of my custom build on RotorBuilds finally, so I will be sharing them day by day until I'm caught up currently. This build I made for my fiance so when she gets to Florida she will have her own 5" custom build ready to fly. I absolutely love the way this flies and handles a GoPro to, and doesn't feel that heavy at all like other quads do, and plenty of room to build in as well. I rarely fly this build do to the fact I don't wanna ruin her build before she gets to fly it herself, lol. I currently don't have the maiden flight video for this quad, but I do have the footage saved (I was super busy working back then), but I will be posting that on youtube very soon, and I will embed it on this page as well. Incase anyone is curious the word MAHAL means LOVE.

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!

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
