This is my Goby 210 with 3D printed protection. The feet on the bottom dramatically reduce prop fouling in short grass. This is great for racing when you find yourself on a date with a gate, and you'd like to get back in the action. In addition, the side plates prevent broken props and other shrapnel from causing destruction to the more delicate components. It is worth noting that I am torturing the RG20A ESCs with ~40A on the hexblades and they have not flinched even once (even on tracks with long punch-outs). Highly recommend these ESCs! This quad produces a formidable 7.5:1TWR and has plenty of power to run the camera at 55-60 degrees with hexblades, although I prefer 50. Here is a link to this quad in action. I must say that she is a bit tough to keep down!

Interesting protection. How much weight does it add?

It's an additional 60 grams. Until I've got my camera at full tilt, I'm not too worried about a little extra weight.

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..
