Built using most of the HappyModel Crux3 parts. Amazing performance for a 2s Kwad. Very smooth with tons of punch out.

Last pic is my current ductless micro collection. 59mm 1s nano with 31mm props, 100mm 1s TP with 65mm props, and this 115mm 2s TP with 3 inch props. Very fun group of Kwads to take to the park for a couple hours of rippin packs.

Nice build mate. Wished I'd gone for this myself but I'd already ordered parts for my slightly bigger 3".
What's the runtime like for cruising / rippin'?

Thanks! I'm really happy with this little kwad. On GNB 300mah 7.6v 80c batteries I'm getting about 3 and a half minutes of aggressive flying, and can get around 4 and a half minutes just cruising.

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
