Flying Squirrel - The Next Generation FPV Cinema Drone

The Flying Squirrel is available for pre-order only (estimated ship out date Nov. 27th 2023) here: Visit the Rotorbuilds page for the Flying Squirrel to decide what components to choose: ***No stabilization or rolling shutter correction was applied to the footage, only a simple color grade. The Flying Squirrel is finally finished! This design was conceived of in April 2023 and it’s taken hundreds of hours of design, prototyping, and field testing to create the best performing naked BMPCC4K FPV drone in existence. The components used in this flight demonstration are: - 2X Auline 3300mah 4S in series (8S) - Xing 3110 900kV Motors - Gemfan 8060 carbon fiber props - iFlight Succex 80A 8S ESC - Foxeer F722 V2 FC (with 100uF cap soldered to 5V circuit for noise reduction) - TBS crossfire - DJI/caddx air unit with nebula pro (This frame is 100% compatible with DJI O3) Camera settings used in flight: - Laowa ultra light lens (150g) at f/22 - 4 stop ND filter - Silicon Pro 128GB Cfast - 24 fps - 144 deg shutter speed - BRAW 12:1 The sensor noise indicated in the flight footage is caused by a worn out/not fully seated sensor ribbon plug. This was a prototype with mismatched carbon plates from previous models which put extra strain on the sensor ribbon cable so it wasn’t able to seat properly sometimes. This is a non-issue with the production version. In addition, this camera PCB board has been swapped dozens of times so the mating cycles on the ribbon socket is probably over 20 cycles by now due to the development process.
