2nd build complete! This build was so much easier than expected because of that AIO FC PDB VTX. There is no stack at all because i used individual ESCs. I wasn't able to roll with the low profile standoff due to the full size FPV cam (Foxeer arrow V3). I originally ordered a blue arrow V3 from amazon, but my package was stolen at my apt complex, so i ended up getting an orange arrow and kept this orange theme and thought it would be a good idea to post it on Halloween.

The stretch frame took a little getting use to because of the minimal stick movement in the aileron. I cant tell you how durable the frame is because i haven't crashed yet. The RCX motors seem pretty solid and since this is only my second build, my first build using 1105 motors, and my first drone was a BNF wizard220, i cant really compare them to any other 22xx motors, but I can tell you that these motors were way faster than the 2204 wizard motors and a lot quieter.

I posted a few pics of the build process and i hope you enjoy the pics. Thanks!

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..
