I became interested in testing a CineWhoop and decided to try an own design and this is shown here.

Overall size between motors is 157mm diagonally, ducts are 30mm high and overall width of bottom plate is 40mm. Propellers used are of 75mm size.

As much of the design is dependent on components choosen I have selected to publish the top- and bottom plates, the ducts, the GoPro mount item, a holder for two front high intensity white leds (makes it easier to judge the forward direction) and legs.

I use ArduCopter and my version is equipped with GPS, FPV equipment and a GoPro Hero 6 and it performs well.

Weight of top part is 27g, bottom 24g, ducts approx 50g when made of PLA.

I am not able to guide anyone in how to select components and make them work together but there is much information available on the Internet and for reference I list the ones I have used.

I hope this item may inspire others to test building their own CineWhoop (or other type of drone).
