This is a build I started about 6 months ago and have built and rebuilt a number of times since then. This is the final revision that I've been working towards, with all the appropriate 3D-printed parts (some from Thingiverse, some of my own design), just in time for the 2017 season to really get underway.
I fly a combination of Tattu 4S 1300mAh 75C and Turnigy Graphene 4S 1300mAh 65C packs and don't really feel much difference between them. Most of the time I fly on RaceKraft's 5x4x3 props, but I do have a set or two of RK 5051x3 and DAL 5x4x4 props that I fly just because they look cool.
Now that I have this setup finalized and tuned the way I want I intend to build a clone or two so I always have a bird in the air. She's heavy--weighing in at 457.3g before the Yi and lipo.

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..
