First intro to fpv was from a iflight cinebee, good for slow flying but then eventually got to the point where it did not fly well for how I progressed and had a lot of yaw washout. When the tadpole came out I swapped the flight stack and now I'm enjoying this much better. Stack is very tight and would probably go with a whoop AOI board if rebuild today. Never flown a 5" but I imagine this is what it would feel like, fast and agile even on 2s. With the larger 2s 850 mah battery I can run for ~10 minutes of cruising around, which is hard to do since it is very responsive. The least flown for sure in my fleet but very fun.

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