The Money Shot Mini is a first of it's kind, poised to revolutionize how you capture aerial footage. Our design has roots in the X Class FPV Drone racing world, where we - Catalyst Machineworks - dominate all competition. Meet the new and improved version 2 MoneyShot Mini! This new version uses the same design and manufacturing philosophies that made the V1 an industry leader. How could we make something so damn good even better? Find out what has changed and improved below.
What changed from V1 to V2:
Flight control software was updated to allow for RTH on command, RTH in the event of a failsafe, and position hold on command
Configuration moved from 9" X8 to 10" Y6 producing more power with less props. This saved 250g of mass while improving aerodynamics
Motors have been updated from 3115 to 3120. This is a stator volume increase of 25%
Lipos are reconfigured to mount to the bottom of the craft on a single quick release tray instead of two trays (one top / one bottom) as with the V1
Two voltage options are now available. 8s and 12s
Two flight pack power-in plug options are available. XT90 and AS150 on the same craft
An angle indicator has been added to the FPV camera
Arm airfoils have been added to the arms to reduce turbulent airflow
Easy remote flight controller USB access has been added
There is no longer a separate dedicated lipo to power the HD FPV system. We use a high quality reliable UBEC
More voltage out options are available to power your cinema camera. 12VDC, 14VDC, or 16VDC
