Heffalump

Thought it would be cool to be the only one with this odd frame on RB. For 20 bucks it turned out to be a decent frame. I asked my kid what we should call it so she's the Heffalump.
I should mention that this thing is by far the quietest 5 inch quad I've ever heard. Cruising around at half throttle and its almost silent. The punch out and quick turns/flips/rolls only sound like a 3s quad. I'm not sure why because she's pretty fast for her weight!
All the electronics are conformal coated with the exception of the camera board, sd card slot, ufl connectors, and vtx button Should be good enough as long as I don't attempt to drown it.

Waiting on the receiver currently. ESCs are installed underneath the arms which gives it a cool look I think. Should be safe from bent prop attacks as well. Turns out I'll have to 3d print a mount for the split camera since the pod is a little too wide to make it work.
Turning out to be a cool build!
Looks cool! do you know the weight?
It weighs 310 without the battery or strap. A picture of it on the scale is in the comments... I didn't change from the 'In-progress' stage to the completed stage the right way and a few pictures ended up there
Alright thanks!
