I wanted to share with you my efforts to build the lightest possible FPV ducted quadcopter.
For this, i used an Eachine E012 which i modded.
Results :
13.98g without battery.
19.08g with battery.
2m30 flight time with JJRC H20 battery ( less than 2 minutes with stock one )
I think this is the smallest and lightest ducted 5.8G FPV quadcopter in the world.
I only saw non-ducted quadcopter going below. For instance, Hubsan H111D weights 18.30g including battery out of the box. And even 18.80g after the M7 fov mod.
Thanks for watching !
Feel free to leave a comment.
