Today we’re going to build an indestructible racing drone… well nearly indestructible! We’ll go through all the hardware needed, and assembly for this drone. This is one of my favorite frames, and I hope you’ll love it just as much as I do. Huge shutout to Thomas at RaGG~e for the patience on the project, and much love to Rotor Riot for the opportunity. Had a lot of fun and put in a lot of effort to make this build video happen :D
