This is my eMax Baby Hawk. I got it thinking it would be fun for indoors, but this thing is WAY too fast for indoor use! It also flies pretty bad and not stable at all. The flight control board is held down with some really cheap double sided foam tape. Its advised to take apart the frame so you can remove the stock tape and replace it with high quality VHB. After doing this to my quad, it still flew like ass. Several attempts to tune the quad failed.

I am not very impressed with this and plan on selling it.

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. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
