Few pictures of the build.
All the parts

Preferred soldering the wires directly onto the ESC pads

Made a DIY PDB using a double sided copper board. For supplying the Naze32 with 5V I had bought a 5V buck converter. But it had some issues on 4S. When the output was connected to a load the voltage dropped to 2V. But no issues on 3S. So I used a LM7805 for the 5V supply.
I preferred to keep the ESC inside the quad's body rather than on the arms

@Himadri, love your videos. But  I wish there was more greenery ( on the field) not trees 😄

A lot has been upgraded on the quad.
The Cobras have been replaced by EMAX RS2205 Red Bottoms, The cobras are kept for another build(Love 'em  :))
The FC has been changed to XRacer/KISS FC
Also using a PowerOSD Pro instead of the MinimOSD
Added HS1177 Camera for FPV and Xiaomi Yi for HD Recording
Quanum V2 with 40ch Eachine VRx(will be posting a review soon)

Instead of bumping this old thread again and again I will start a new thread with all the FPV videos in it! It will at least save you guys of the hassles of scrolling down through the boring build log ;D
