Built this to test out the Uber Design 220 to test out my friend Eric's design. It's an amazing little beast, and I can't believe how well it flies.

Thanks for the suggestion Syrne! I was thinking about adding an "Add Video" button to the build editor where it'll add a thumbnail of the video just like the images section. When you click a thumbnail it'll go to a separate page with just the video and the comments below. How does that sound?

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..
