2" 1s analog build using the Sub250g FPV Baby Turtle V7 frame and Matrix AIO board. I took the motor connectors off and soldered directly to the pads, which was challenging on the top of the board due to the close spacing of the fet chips and the thicker silicon coating of the motor wire. I had to increase the maximum startup power on the ESC's to 1120 to get all the motors spinning. I am seeing 16amp max currrent on punchouts, and the board is handling it fine so far.

nice frame , looks lite build.
Have you tried 3 blades props?

I haven't, but I just ordered some Gemfan 2009 triblades to try out. It flies really well on these 2015s.

I did not like the 2009s on this build, but they worked great on my 2" toothpick with 1002 motors. The 2015s on here are my favorite so far for this build.

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.
