The build I put together is a 90mm Brushless build for around 50 dollar, depending if you bought parts in sale or not. If anyone found parts that are even more cheap than this build id love to hear it, and ill update this page!


This Build is without FPV. If you also would want FPV you could order:

PRICE: 10 Dollars

PRICE: 12$ + 6$ = 18 Dollars

9 Dollars

If you want to go 3s and split escs buy these:

PRICE: 5$ x 4$ = 20 dollars

But you might have the problem that you cant power up the FPV gear.


Update:
This stack will provide a better FC and ESC for a really cheap price, making the total cost around 40 Dollars (without FPV).

PRICE: 21 Dollars


I ended up using the FS-A8S as a receiver but I think this one would also work:

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

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..
