Mike/FPV Flightclub, makes some excellent frames, this is his best one yet, really a pleasure to work on/build. The frame is undoubtedly my absolute favourite. The “Neucleous plate†and butter mount are both pretty innivotive and clever, the carbon is neat and everything just works.
I replaced the 25mm standoffs with 20mm ones.

I used light motors and props and the unloading in the air means it is very efficient as well as fast and agile. The fc/esc aio is “interesting†to solder, pads are all more like 20x20 sized, the full sized board wicks heat away from them very fast, but once assembled it works superbly. Bf3.2.3, 8/4khz, dshot1200, reverses yaw, filters off, dynamic filter enabled, motor pwm raised to 48khz.
The combo of light motors and light props works well, decen5 Top end but massive agility and very efficient

I absolutely love this quad ATM, can’t recomend the frame enough (if you can catch it in stock)

Super neat and clean! Can l ask if this antenna performs as well as a usual clover leaf or pagoda antenna?

I normally use either TBS triumph or menacerc pagoda on 5 inch quads but I have used quite a few ufl attached antenna on my 4 inch, the axii is pretty good, nit quite as good as the tbs cloverleaf ufl but it takes a hit miles better, it has become my preferred antenna on 4 inch and smaller. I would say on this frame though the ballon is very close to the frame, it means in the wrong aspect you do get interference from the frame on the signal, but it is manageable,
