looking good. any footage on how the legs fold? This looks like all carbon. isn't this blocking RF for FPV?
 
Yeah the carbon fiber does interfere with the RF. I have not done anything over 300 yards so I'm not sure how bad it interferes. I do have my antenna pointing down below the frame and maybe thats why I don't have any problems yet.
 
Hi mate normally if you can keep antenna below frame it ok , the problem started with carbon planes it would block tx signal so the guys had to start to drill holes to stick antenna out of this fixed the problem , also some fit a sat receiver so all angles are covered
 
This actually looks kind of cool. Do you have a video how the folding mechanism works with all the electronics fitted including motors and props? What's that plastic on top for? to protect the electronics? I guess that any GPS signal would go straight through it, right?
