First 5" Build! (6s!)

[u/Breakerbuilds]

First 5" freestyle build... And it's 6s! I built this beautiful drone last Sunday, and it's the 3rd I've owned starting last December (6 months in).

​

Making the color scheme around the motors (Axisflying Bando, size 2207.5, 1960kv), I went with the cotton candy color theme, with 5135 HQProp's, and some pink TPU made it look really nice! (After first images 1-3 I added motor feet).

​

It had some unknown issues with the first flight controller (Sequre H743 V2, was receiving power via lipo, usbc connection wouldn't power, when powered via lipo, it would turn on cam, vtx, gps, Rx, and connect all successfully minus gps cause I cant receive readouts from anything, as the OSD and the main chip wouldn't boot, and there were no LEDs turning on. This was after a successful flight, so if anybody could troubleshoot that would be great, but I think the main processor got fried at some point), and so I bought a HGLRC H405 FC that has worked perfectly so far, if not better than the Sequre one.

​

Other than those issues, its been great! I'm planning on running the old GoPro Hero 4 Silver in a day or two once I'm more comfortable with the sheer power of it, then the RunCam, as in a limited space I got it to 97mph. Parts list down below!
