This has been my first complete build from scratch without being a "kit". Ive rearranged and modified some other drones I have, but this is my first go at a 5" Now Ive got a 2, 3, 4, 5, AND 6" quad. Hopefuly I learn something on this one.

I still have a little bit to finish up, might get it in the air tomorrow to see what it does, I need to rob a couple parts off another quad. Ill post up some more pics of it when its all set, and maybe some of my lame flying videos. Really just started flying flying in June of this year, totally into it right now.

*Actually switched to a Caddx Ratel, just wasnt feeling the Foxeer. All my cameras are Ratels, not sure why I even bothered with the Predator 5.

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