Going for a lightweight long-range 5-inch. Originally mocked up with AOS Supernovas but I could not fit an appropriately sized ESC into this frame. Switched the motors to Emax Eco II 2004 1600kv, which seem to be a much better match for the project. I'm going to fit Gemfan 5" lightweight bi-blades (LR 5126-2).

The build came together nicely once the motors and stack arrived. The Flywoo stack was wonderful to work with and I took full advantage of the plugs on the FC to connect the GPS and RX. This was my first experience with AM32 - no issues so far. It's interesting hearing totally different startup sounds as I have only ever had BLHeli before!

GPS is mounted at the front to avoid interference from the O3. I remixed a 3D model that allows the GPS to be mounted to the horizontal standoff at the top of the camera cage. This works perfectly, and I get 12+ satellites right away.

As I got near the end of the build, I decided to mount the battery in the 'toilet tank' fashion just for variety. It turns out this orientation was a better way to mount the bigger 18650 pack.

Here's the maiden flight:

It flies very smooth with Chris Rosser's tune for this frame.

Update: switched battery strap to normal. I got a 25 minute flight with a 6s1p 3000mah li-ion pack.

Another update: the GPS module has been replaced with a Flywoo GM10 mini V3 and the long-ass VTX antenna replaced with a Flywoo bipolar dual-band (150mm). Both perform very well - I got lock on 27 stats and around 30mbit to my Goggles 2 from 5km away.

I'm noticing what appears to be very small vibrations in the video sometimes. Doesn't look like the jello I've seen on other O3 builds, but more subtle like the camera going briefly out of focus. Otherwise, near-perfect build. It flies beautifully. Here's some highlights from two flights this weekend:
