I've been eyeing this frame for a long time... finally went for it. I would say better quality than Diatone. The carbon is svelt. All the parts you need, the standoffs have a clean finish, the carbon is awesome, bolts, stack bolts, nuts, etc...
The frame is super stiff and easy to assemble. There is zero space for anything but a stack, but thats what i was looking for. The camera is a v1 HDzero nano with a runcam lens. The cam body barely fits into the cam tpu and is not adjustable. n e e d s a tune. Currently only able to fly sanely below mid throttle, yet its still super fast.

I see you switched to much heavier 1506 motors on the newer version. Were the 1408 not satisfying? I am currently planning a similar build with 1408s, Foxxer AIO 40A and a naked Walksnail V2.

the 1408s became unbalanced in a crash... i decided to get something a little beefier

That's a SPICY boi!
I bet it's a awesome on the sticks, that drivetrain is THICC.
I have something similar, and it makes me want to race (i'm primarily a freestyle pilot with something like this).

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

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..
