Made this one for my son. I ordered a replacement part for mine (eachine wizard 220hv) and basically ended up with a spare frame, so why not. Old T-Motors, since they were also spare/salvaged, that VTx, since it's proven itself on another project, and generally I really enjoy how this design flies, it's very low profile, good COG, very true freestyle X...nice frame, maybe a bit heavy on the eyes, but it's durable and it flies nice.

One little bump on the road was that first flight controller arriving DOA, simply powering on through the USB plug, but when putting a lipo on, only the "above 5V" pads were getting power, so I figured something must've been wrong with the 5V regulator...

After sending that back and getting my money returned I was successful in using the replacement part... honestly these cheap under $40 stacks by AliExpress fly great. So far no problems, this 5V dud was a first.

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..
