Changed the FC a a third time. Now rocking TMotor F4...Lux F7 kept having random shut downs in mid air. Designed another version of the cam mount. This time with a Dragon incorporated that uses TPU sandwiching PLA to stiffen the mount. I think it turned out ok. Footage is jello free for the most part unless I am truly punching the throttle... video from a 4 pack tunning session.

where can I find this frame in the u.s.?
You can get any one to cut you the frame. Everyone I know likes to use Nick at CNC Madness but the frame is open source and you can choose anyone you want, another good guy is Tarek at CycloneFPV he is based in Texas. You can find all the dxf files for the frame on the MacroQuads Facebook Files section: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MacroQuads/files
The difference with mine is I built it using 20mm stand offs and I remixed a bunch of files to make my own TPU accessories: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4715185
