Take a ZMR 250 frame clone for ~$8 and chop it to 25mm build height (default is 35mm), and you have a Clopper. Clone Chopper, geddit? ;-)
Why this strange mix of ultra-cheap and pretty good parts? Well, for my first build i bought 3S motors with built-in ESCs and the Kakute F4 AIO, but because of upgrading to 4S-capable parts before i even got half of the shipments, and a shipping delay for the Kakute, which resulted in buying a different FC at a local shop, i had a lot of parts lying around. So i decided to build a second quad from those parts.
I first tried to use 20mm spacers, but trying to squeeze a Runcam Micro Swift in there left me basically no uptilt angle at all, so i changed the spacers to 25mm ones. Not nearly as low as before, but still lower than the original ones.
The 3D printed parts can be found here:

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..
