Started my mini fpv quadcopter tonight.

Decided to also try out the mobius camera which is going to be the main fpv camera , but using the "stop frame" photo function , did a picture every 10 seconds and stitched it together with sonny vegas.

Spec of quad is:-

Have some tidying up to do and a bit of soldering , could also do with some weight reducing as up to 540grams and was hoping to make it less than 500g.

Hi,

Nice video.  How the copter flying?

I';m interested in the motors you used.  Have they been reliable?

Are 50 x 30 props 5" x 3", I';ve never seen this way of describing them before.

Cheers, Camerart.

flew OK , but had to replace rubber anti-vibration dampers as they were to soft and it oscillated  under high throttle.

Motors are reliable , but they are cheap and i';ve had a iffy new  one and some magnets came loose after a couple of crashes , there';s better ones out there for not much more.

props are 5030 gemfan , which are 5" x 3" , dirt cheap and work well
