I wanted to get more flight time from my 1s batteries. My wife loves it because its pretty much silent outside of 3-4 meters. The set of 0802 motors I was going to use has wires that are just too short. These 0702's barely reach this fc's plugs. Side mounted pins would be more forgiving.
tinyhawk ii led stuffed in there for good measure

My batteries are pretty old and worn, but i would say im getting maybe another 20-30% flght time.

All my other drones it takes a some throttle to get liftoff. Just a tiny bit of throttle on this and you are in the air.
