A Top/Bottom Mount 3" HD Ultralight thats super easy to build. Dry weight for mine is @ 74G and I'm getting about 4m a pack w/ 520mah 3S lipos. Mix and matching different components is totally fine but see build notes below for my personal suggestions.
Purchase Frame @ http://cncdrones.com/GOA-Breeze-3-inch-HDAnalog-racing-frame_p_1034.html
Build Notes:
1) Caddx Vista De-casing @ www.youtube.com/watch?v=e--SYUSe1Rw
2) Any whoop FC will work w/ this build but I think the BetaFPV model is the best because it F405, 32bit and offers Plug & Play connectors for Digi VTX and RX
3) With smaller 120x - 130x motors I prefer 2mm bottom plate thickness for weight savings
4) 25mm mounting holes on the naked vista PCBs are only M1.8 so in order to mount correctly w/ M2 hardware I had to hand drill using a 2mm bit (See Misc Parts)
5) Spaced Vista boards using Nylon M2 bolts (x8) but any M2 4mm+ spacer/standoff/grommet can be subsituted
Updates:
1) AMAX 1303 motors have proven to be very delicate. After burning through a few Ive decided to swap em out w RCinpower 1204 5000kv which are a bit heavier but MUCH more durable and also allow a better selection of props
2) Upgraded Cam from Nebula V2 Nano to Nebula Nano Pro (MUCH better image quality and similiar weight)
3) Removed the rear 3D printed antenna mount and swapped front cam mount out for lighter standoff mounts to compensate for extra weight from the heavier motors

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..
Read moreWith 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..

Nice build. Did you use M2 or M3 standoffs for the frame?
