HM 1102 9000kv 1mm shaft
Gemfan 75mm props

In my opinion, this is a perfect small park flier. It's safe, quiet, quick, and gets good flight time. I've been using 300mah 2s RDQ lipos and easily fly for 5 minutes. The Pickle frame is 2mm and weighs less than 5g. I rotated the fc to have the USB pointing out the back for easy access. The gemfan props are good and the 1102 motors don't struggle to spin them since the AUW is light. The only draw back of this little guy may be the 1mm motors shafts. I haven't crashed so I don't know how durable the 1mm shafts are.

random DVR of it cruising around the front yard.

Nice build. Random question as another toothpick builder, but can you take off out of grass? My 1S cannot for the life of it take off if I land it in the lawn.

i didnt land this in grass, but i assume it wouldn't. my 2s toothpick struggles sometimes to get out of grass. there just isnt enough clearance for the props being so low to the ground that it usually get caught and flips over
