My first quad build

My first quad build was a blast! Coming from a design background, I wanted to put my own spin on things, so I decided to give the frame a fresh coat of paint. It was a bit of a challenge since I'm fairly new to FPV, but I had a lot of fun figuring it all out. Building the quad wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be, and I learned a lot along the way. The painted frame turned out great, and I'm stoked to get it in the air and see how it flies. Overall, it was a pretty cool experience!

The color of this design is very outstanding Block Blast and I also like these creative designs. Hopefully it will be applied in reality.

Nice job. Pretty colors, is it montana paint?
Have you tested in flight?
I have the flyfish atlas 4 but I experienced lot of oscillations on the video with o3.
I ordered the same stack as your for upgrade, I really hope the oscilation came from my old FC because I like my Atlas.
What settings have you used for PID and filters?
THank you

Sorry to hear about the oscillations issue. Yeah I used the black silicon mount for the camera and gyroflow to stabilize the video. Hope you get it resolved!

I use new props and new flyfish motors with a new frame, it is a bit disappointing.
Could you post a short video of your DVR flight or non stabilized video to compare with my flight? thank you.
My new FC is en route...

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
