This quad is going on two years old, and has been through some changes. It's caught between a race and freestyle life at this point. I've tried different pod designs and switched back to carbon plates since my first pod designs kind of sucked.

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

How do you like the Fly tower F3? I've tried looking it up on youtube but see nothing but bad reviews.
Wish I could tell you. It seems to work fine, but I've yet to maiden it. Too busy with work and bad weather. Likely won't get a chance this weekend, but maybe next. I'll reply if I remember to!
