Looks good Kev:) I love Fossil:) so so robust:)

[KevG]

After the beating my 280 and 180 have had tonight in acro I have to agree 200%

[Graham Lawrie]

Nearly pulled the trigger on the 180:)

[KevG]

The 180 is great but the team pilots are saying the 210 is the nuts.

Looks cool Kev.

Well I got a bit done last night after I found the frame in the house when I got home from work.

Am I mistaken in thinking that these Gravity frames are not available in the USA? I keep seeing these cool looking frames but I've not found a place, here, that sells them.

Anyway....cool looking frame, Kev!!!

[KevG]

he would ship direct Derek if you ordered from Fossils direct

[Graham Lawrie]

Looking good Kev:) I got the Afro version but never used it. Lose one lose all 4?

[KevG]

there's always that chance mate, but not had a little bee fail yet, don't push them super hard, so I flipped the coin to have an easier build......

[KevG]

Well moved it along a fair bit.

Got the fc pinned up which to be fair was 6 pins and 3 sat cable wires. Installed the fc and soldered up the voltage regulator for the video system

Then once the fc was mounted I small fettle of the frames to get usb access

The camera cut out and protection is a work of art.

Then came the boring pc set up running betaflight 2.7.1 with blheli 14.6

Then buttoned her up for now as I still have to fit the vtx and micro minim osd

And quick 20 seconds hover in the bedroom to test it and it's silky smooth and a pleasure in the air.
