I normally fly my 5" Shendrone Ichabod Jr and a 6" FPVFrames.ch RangeX cinematic quad, but I recently noticed that my freestyle skills are not evolving at all because these quads are not build to take hits and that makes me affraid to push myself to get better.
So, I dug up my old Source One frame (that's been sitting broken on the shelf after a drunk tree jumped into my flight path and broke an arm and caused a electrical short) and used a few spare parts I've been hoarding to rebuild it from scratch.
The Source One frame is build like a tank and can take hits far better than my other quads. I'm hoping to now use it to practise freestyle without worrying so much about crashes.
The color theme on this build was inspired by another (awesome) Source One build posted on this site : https://rotorbuilds.com/build/16700

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