Finally!!! I built a 6" quad that doesn't show any vibrations in the HD footage! It's so smooth, I didn't have to tune anything on the PIDs or filters level, it's completely stock. You can check out the build here: https://rotorbuilds.com/build/15884 (it's featured on the front page of rotorbuilds hehe) Components * BrainFPV Radix as flight controller: it has a nice graphical OSD to display gyro noise and features a high-quality gyro chip * T-Motor F55A Pro ESC: according to some tests I saw, this ESC is low-noise and will provide waaayyyy enough headroom for current draw * MB Primo 2208 motors: smooth and quite cheap, these are really enjoyed by long-range enthusiasts * Runcam Racer (first version): camera with a very nice dynamic range, not going for realism here, the picture looks kinda weird but you see EVERYTHING * TBS Unify Pro MMCX: first time actually using a MMCX vTX, came in handy when assembling the quad because I could easily pop off the pigtail to remove the "canopy" * Crossfire Diversity Nano RX: the new receiver allows to use 2 antennas, thus canceling nulls in the reception pattern and also can use a backup battery to run after the main battery is ejected * 35mm GPS board: I found the small 18x18mm boards tend to lose reception over time, and become quite useless after a few months. The bigger ones provide quick fixes and seem to work better * Vifly Finder 2: buzzer with its own battery so that it can still beep in case the main battery is ejected. And it's loud.
