With MDX quickly approaching I was presented with a quad essentially sponsored by Falcon Multirotors and ReadytoFlyQuads.com. I received the Falcon 185 frame in exchange for my ongoing efforts to develop an adjustable micro cam solution with Lazd, and RTFQ hooked me up with some awesome hardware to test out. I'll soon be swapping the motors pictured in the photos, the HyphPV Custom Orange Booties, for a larger stature motor to more efficiently swing 5" triblades, and will update the description accordingly when that time comes. The motors, receiver, and FPV system were the only parts not provided for this build, and thanks to BulbufetFPV's parts graveyard and generosity I was able to reuse some that I had lying around. I'm absolutely loving the way this puppy flew on it's first few voyages and can't wait to swap out the motors and get everything tuned up and dialed in. Should be a ripper!
