Finally found a great formula for a 3S Kayoumini freestyle build after several attempts (including 2 burned boards). The 2S fly great, but I found they lacked a bit in weight and power. This version flies buttery smooth and has ample power, you can probably use it for spang. Limit motors to 80% to make it more controllable and enjoyable. At full power, it can be a tad jumpy! Use 12mm standoffs.

Full up weight less than 115g, great balance of weight and power.
