I had every intention to not waterproof this quad. It actually made it about a month, but then it rained for 3 days and here we are.
I built this quad to carry the HDZero beta micro camera when that launched. It has had a production camera in it, and now its carrying the Digisight v3 Starlight. I started with a Sharkbyte TX5M.1 500mw vtx, which doesnt quite fit in the rear. it will work if you angle the mounting screws. I also tried mounting the vtx in the center but the lack of clearance between the vtx and top plate bothered me. So now it has an HDZero TX5S.1 which fits nicely.
