Review on 🚁 Usmile Herbie: Compact 112mm Carbon Fiber FPV Racing Quadcopter Frame for Ultimate Drone Performance by Chris Burks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great layout, poor quality parts

I love the space this frame offers. Fits easily in a 20mm stack and a Caddx Vista behind. 450 4C liposuction and it's a lot of fun. In fact, I prefer it to my 5 inch devices. Since my landings are very accident-like, I am satisfied with the quality of the carbon. The only weak point are the nylon frames. Already flown a dozen times, and two racks were pulled off. The ATV shakes violently and the engines get very hot. As a temporary solution, I superglued the M2 nylon screws and will eventually replace the nylon posts with metal posts. It's hard to find a similar dual 20mm layout in a 2.5" chassis and I recommend this frame knowing the posts (19mm) will need replacing. I'll take a pair myself. Good flight!

Pros
  • Very light and easy to assemble. Weight: 19 g
Cons
  • Not all will fit
