The Kabab 1s 3" Toothpick is still my favorite micro format. I've built many of them with different configurations to include 1s, 2s, and 3s. So it was only appropriate that I build a HDzero version with the new HDzero AIO and Lux camera. I used my go-to toothpick frame that Faebu FPV created and had CNC Madness in Canada cut the frame. It's 2mm with chamfered edges and has a great 3D printed battery holder and canopy that Faebu FPV also designed. It's still a work in progress as we're still trying ot figure out how to accomodate the vtx antenna.
This build uses RCinpower 1202/ 11500kv motors and is a great backyard acro flyer. It's so light it can crash with needing a rebuild and if you fly over grass, it almost never needs repair.
My first choice in digital is DJI Air units however I've always had a weight limition to build a 1s digital. The HDzero AIO is fantastic and makes for a super clean build. The image quality is great compared to analog (and yep, I still fly lots of analog rigs).
Power to weight is amazing and you can fly it anywhere because it's super quiet. Hit me up wth quesitons!

Hey so nice! I tried to copy, and used the same AIO, same motors same everything, I check I had motors and props correct direction, looks same as yours, but I can spin up the motors and it won't lift off, did you need to changed any setting for it to work correctly??
I 100% could be wrong, I read, Rcinpower 1202 likely has 14 poles, Happymodel 0702 likely has 12 poles. on betaflight it says, count the magnets, not stator slots, so I changed it to 14, given the same motors used as yourself, what is your motor pole setting in BF?? I know its only for RPM filtering, but still keen to get it all correct....:)
A super lightweight and agile toothpick with HDZero AIO, perfect for backyard acro sessions - it just flies well, and crashes on grass seldom need repairs. A fantastic combo of HDZero digital footage with a micro platform - pure flying joy!
i have all of these exact same parts for this build but i was worried about the escs not being able to handle the motors. How is yours doing? i bought a beta fpv 1s 12 amp aio and i was thinking id run it and the eco vtx with the lux cam at a pretty big weoght penalty. but if this is holding up for you id much rather just use the AIO 5.
Hello, very nice build. I also love 1s 3" platform and I was flying analog version for a long time but only when hdzero released AIO I build babytooth with one instantly. Now it is even better! Do you mind sharing tune? I am not the best at this and I am using one that is quite nice but maybe yours is better. Canopy also looks great, if it is not a problem I would like to try it too :D
And here's the canopy .stl

Man, that is a stunning build man. Extremely clean, lightweight, and overall an insane leap in technology the more I think about it. Like, just a few years we never even considered digital systems for FPV. Few years later, 5in drones are slowly transitioning to digital and we have a few options for digital....and another 2 years later, even whoops can be digital in reasonable weights.
also side note, Faebu FPV did a great job with that frame.
Thanks so much! And you are so right. It was a pipe dream only a few years ago. I cant wait to see what a few more years will bring.
Faebu FPV is a great designer, pilot, and friend in Switzerland. I have probably built 20 1s toothpicks on this frame. He also designed the printed battery mount on the bottom of the frame.
Really cool build, could I get the files for the cf frame?
Thanks! Shoot me an email and I'll send it.
