Spent all evening shooting footage with Caddx Nebula, only to find out that a crash in my first flight knocked the lens out of focus and the rest of the footage was unusable. Ouch.

Oh damn you didn't think I was going to forget did you? HELLLL NO!
Here's what I'm giving away this month!
1. Acrobrat 3" / iFlight Xing motors / iFlight FC / Runcam Hybrid camera
2. Oddball Lexie build. Lexie frame and motors. The FC is one of the JB F7 prototypes that we ended up abandoning because I hated the layout. So it's one of a kind, but also you can't actually flash Betaflight to it because a target doesn't exist. ENJOY!

Here's some pre-release info about the TX16S that RadioMaster sent me. They say all this info is out there, but the also asked me not to make any videos about it until I have the radio in hand. Well, posting to Patreon isn't a video, right? Some of this stuff is pretty exciting!

PATRONS FIRST: Insta360 One R on "160 mph" quad
This video will post some time next week, but Patrons get an early look. I put the Insta360 One R on the "160 mph" quadcopter from the other day. Then I flew "3 packs a day". I have been on the fence about whether the 360 cam is an acceptable alternative to a GoPro style action cam. I mean, are you really going to do a bunch of 360-cam tricks if all you want to do is fly freestyle? But the ability to tweak the field of view to be exactly what I want was really exciting, and I was able to give...
