What do you think of the motors? They are selling for twice that price now... They look like a solid choice for 2205 motors... What props do they work on best?

Oh, i'm running them on cyclone t5046c now. Probably too heavy for them on the high end, but they give great low-middle end.

You just sold me - I'm getting a set! I was thinking about going Hyperlite, but I've heard shafts (only 3mm) break easier.

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..
