I like weird copters, so I present a 3" bone quad. Originally built with spare parts, now the only salvaged parts are the VTX and batteries.
The battery is too large for the quad, though it still has some punch; I might grab some 650 or 550's next. The eco motors are currently not pictured, but seem solid.
Getting in the air is the hardest part, you have to balance it on something to avoid striking the ground with the pusher props. Roll isn't particularly affected by the... unique force envelope of the quad, cornering definitely is, the quad is very floaty around corners. I'm drawing ~9A during punchouts so I could have gotten away with an FC with lower rated ESCs.
yooo thats mad awesome to see someone else using this frame as well. If you wanr i can send u the pid tune I did on mine it flies pretty good.

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..

Hi, nice build! I'm thinking about building one myself. Is it possible to fit 1303 motors on the Arms the way that hbfpv advertises it?
