A build I have planned for night cruising and lower powered flight, as well as, a crasher for introducing friends to the hobby without much worry. I might use beater motors with less pull for this reason as well but I've long wanted to incorporate a 2306 high Kv set into a build and the same goes for utilizing an Armattan frame. I'm betwixed on my stance of weight; obviously a heavier initial starting point than my Ghost... I negate those savings with it's 2508's and ESC's so I was curious to avoid that trifle with an AIO board/stack. In addition, to make camera selection easy, I'd either go with something tiny or something practical. I intend to make this a cleaner, fancier build with LEDs and cable sleeves. It's worth experimenting with 3D flight characteristics with this setup as well I think. With that, this would situate itself neatly in my planned small collection of drones between the 40mm Firefly and 7" V-tail Im converting the Ghost into... pair with Mavic.

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