This is my HappyModel LarvaX with Crossfire! Weighing in just 10g over the stock setup weight! Even with the added bit of weight, he flies awesome!!

Originally we had the full size immortal t, but decided to go mini and strap it to the frame! it helps reduce a bit if weight, and streamlines the build as well! For crisp analog video, I chose the CaddX Ant 16:3 for the camera, its the lightest i can find with the best image quality in my opinion! Im also running tue HappyModel Diamond 200mW DVR Vtx, which i will remove likely in the future to reduce more weight, and have more range. I dint find having onboard DVR very beneficial when my goggles already have analog DVR.

As for the powertrain, were rocking the Happymodel 1103 7500kv motors, a Diatone Mamba F4 v1 whoop AIO with 13a BlHeli-S esc flashed with BlueJay .16 firmware, enabling Bidirectional DShot and allowing for RPM filtering! Spinning mainly the Gemfan 2023 tri-blade prop, but i do plan to experiment with 2.5" props as well!

He started out stock, but i didnt see it as enough! Originally, i had the Crux3 for a micro 2s ripper, but it took a fatal blow, and this is what happened next!浪

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
