V2... i had some issues with a motor so i decide to just tear it down and build it up, pretty much same parts except an new tbs antenna. I had a buzzer in v1 but i took up the entire back end and messed with the antenna placement. I ended up breaking it trying to trim it down. The leds worked out really well this time. I soldered two ontop of each other in the back so up is blue and down is pink. .worked our really well. I also clear heat shrink these now to carry the light and make it visible from any angle. The back motors are new so I had enough length to route them to the FC from the back. The front ones are to short and needed to be standard out the front soldered..
live and learn :)
some of the photos have the longer cut bolts.. the height is an odd mm length like 9 or 11. All my bolts are even length. V1 i cut the bolt to fit which made taking the bolts on and off a pain. This time i shortened the bolts by adding and extra nut at the bottom on the outside of the frame. I pay for the weight, but i can access the guts and move teh battery strap with no hassle now.
I just bought some betaFPV buzzers from amazon.. one was loud, but i figured i had a pack of 10, might as well use two :)
i put them end to end, soldered them together, soldered on the power and ground and heatshrunk the whole thing. worked out very well :)
