2 318 4

Tokio SX with F40 pro 2400's. Kiss FC flashed with Betaflight.
Dry - Around 340 grams
Gopro - Around 440 grams

Slightly heavy but good aerodynamics and powerful motors more than make up for it. 2-4 minute flight times flying acro. Hauls ass! This frame can take a significant beating, I've put it through the wringer as far as crashes go.

Nice looking build! How tight is it under the canopy when using the TBS Mounting Board? It sounds like a nice way to keep things clean.

Pretty tight. The canopy just pops over the nuts on top of the stack and there isnt any wiggle room. you could always trim the inside of the canopy a bit to help it fit better. You could probably make the stack a little shorter too. My XSR is between my 4in1 esc and my FC. Put that on top of the unify and lower the stack and it would probably have a tad more room

My build is basically the same as Mike's from Flightclub on youtube but I use the Kiss FC. I just added short nylon standoffs after the kiss fc, then unify mounting board, then nylon nuts

Good deal! I watched his video last night and was impressed with how it all went together. Thanks...

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
