A backup for my 2.5" bullshark. Essentially identical components as that build, but the frame is much roomier and I think has more options for stuff like comfortably mounting an axii, or double buzzers, or possible an 808 cam, etc. Also a bit more cam protection than the bullshark, and not stretched (props are much less prominent in the feed).
Build differences compared to the bullshark so far:
- Wired up the current sensor. Interested to try that out. Interested to see the difference in current draw between different props (2" vs. 2.5", gemfan flash vs. rotorx quadblade vs. rotorx biblade, etc.).
- Used connector on FC side for ESC motor signal wires. Did the wire splices. That was a little annoying, but it sure cleans up the build.
Planned for the future:
- LEDs? Maybe under the backpack?

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..

I would not be looking at HD cam options for a 2 inch. Consider using DVR or not using a recording cam at all. 2 inch are best at flying rather than carrying payloads.
