TBS Source One V5.1 7 Inch DC Frame

The TBS Source One V5.1 7 inch DC is the 7-inch Deadcat from Team BlackSheep's open-source Source One family, built for long-range freestyle and cruising. The Deadcat layout swings the front arms wide so your 7" props stay out of the camera view. It is built to survive hard crashes, fits all the classic FPV components, and is optimised for low weight.

Key features

• Deadcat geometry – props out of the shot for clean long-range footage.
• 6mm arms with a 2.5mm bottom plate – soaks up crashes and protects the stack and battery.
• Flexible stack mounting – fits both 30.5x30.5mm and 20x20mm stacks.
• Two standoff heights – 30mm and 22mm for standard or low-profile builds.
• Analog or digital – room for DJI, Walksnail, Caddx or analog video.
• Light for a 7" – about 143.5g, lighter than the newer V6 7" DC.
• Open-source design – cheap, well documented and easy to find spares for.
