I built this tricopter from the FliteTest Bat-Bone kit. Overall it is an awesome Multi-copter that is incredibly robust and easy to build.
In this Tri-Copter I first used the KK 2.0 board but after some flights it died on me for no reason so I switched over to a KK 2.1.5. I love this control board as it is so ewasy to set up. The only thing I changed was turning the gains on the rudder down and cutting the stick scaling in half.
I love how it folds down so small. This is a big plus for transportabilaty especially since I'm taking it to camp A.M.A. with me. (It's all the way in Indiana o:)

Flying
I love this tricopter. It was so dialed in I barely had to do anything. I also love how it swoops into the turns compared to my friend quad. If you have any money to spare, I would certainely recomend you get one. It is well worth the money & time to put it together.
FPV Setup
For FPV I am using a Boscam RC305 5.8GHZ receiver paired with a Boscam 500mw transmitter. I am using a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition for the FPV camera.
The screen is a FieldView 888 8" LCD FPV display.
Have a great day and Happy Flying.
