Nice build! How is your nylon standoffs holding in crashess? I have the same frame, and mine broke at he very first crash ;] had to replace them with longer screws and aluminium standoffs.

I've upgraded to the Armattan Japalura - much better !
Yes, the pod is a bit annoying.. but I'm getting used to it 😁 Waiting to see your new frame!
Very annoying and you've got more patience then me haha! new frame is up, maiden done and I'm liking it 100x more than this one...the bh1407 motors kick butt!
