Inspired from the ghost by mode2 and the hyperlite floss, i decided to draw and mill my own light 5" frame.
First i draw the parts in librecad, a free cad programm.

The prototype is from plywood, so can i check if everything fits.

To bind the toxic carbon dust i mill the parts underwater.

Cfk milling is a dirty job :)

Weight of the frame ~50g
Quad without battery ~240g

Arms 4mm Cfk
Bottom 2mm Cfk
Top 1,5mm Cfk

I think the next version will have 3mm bottom and top plate.

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