Hi everyone!

I’d love to hear your thoughts on my build. Let me know what you think!

The following mounts were designed for the frame:

  1. TBS Immortal T V2 antenna mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6988338
  2. TBS Crossfire Nano RX mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6988368
  3. DJI and GPS antenna mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6988345
  4. Capacitor mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6988359

The capacitor is installed right behind the camera.

This build flies for 7 minutes if the throttle is not at 100%.
