This is my nostalgic little buddy! its basically just a stock Vortex 150. I added a gps unit for long range flightability.

3d gps holder printed by JymmiPhreek of HellfireFPV.

My plan is to eventually upgrade the camera as well for even better fpv footage, and i also need to figure out a mount for my CaddX Peanut.
