After watching the live streams of Hong Kong Nationals, I felt inspired to try some of the components used by the winningest teams at the races. So, I got in touch with Flycolor and Evo and this is what I came up with.
I started with the Flycolor Raptor 390 tower, which has integrated F3 FC, OSD, 5/12v BEC and 30amp BLHeli escs. This made for an exceptionally simple and clean build. The only real hiccup I had was needing to extend the wires for the Evo 2205 motors, which came short.
I topped this off with a custom printed GoPro Session mount from BMC3D and a LED/Buzzer combo from Matek.
Weight as shown with GoPro Session is 430g.
