Presentation
The minikeum 111 was created by two passionate bathed in FPV every day!
Indeed, Paul and Teddy work every 2 to Studiosport FPV in the department RACING.
We received a copy of the frame in a full black version of fairly sober and discreet.
The approach is different from what you can see on the market today, here the camera is positioned underneath, so it means that we will see the propellers in the field of vision, but to compensate for that, there is a camera support / vtx specific available here.
The frame is a unibody x 110mm. It is modular and available in 8 colors (Black, red, white, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange).
The support which is intended to accommodate a camera 12mm x 12mm format TPU. Aluminum Spacers are supplied in the same color as the camera support which will get the finish that suits you.
You can also attach the arm protections available TPU here
The frame made of 2 mm thick and weighs 22 grams vacuum. It is rigid enough considering the small size and low inertia in case of crash!
It is possible to mount the motors 1104, 1306 and 1407 are also recommended.
The flight card is PIKO BLX or other format is 20mm x 20mm.
the build
For this configuration, I selected the following
Regarding the theft of card, there is a very simple way to simplify the implementation, the map we will mount upside down and it simply enough to specify in Betaflight.
This allows for mounting the same way as if the flight map was positioned conventionally.
I preferred to mount the ESC under the arms to be aligned with the flight card for connecting the ESC.
For the Connecting From VTX03 rather than pull the 5V beak of the card, adding a beefier stepdown was needed!
A Micro Bec matek fed to the filtered output VTX of the card provides a clean 5V to power the VTX03.
The VTX 03 is simply glued to 3M VHB on the card and it does not move 1mm.
With the Mega LIPO strap that has the merit of the hold up in severe crash, the final weight of 127gr remains in the standard and announces a very nice and efficient chassis 4s.
The assembly is a different hair, but do not pose any particular problem, but after Build, choosing a 4 in 1 Sqn would have been better to center the masses maximum around the center of gravity.
The frame assembly
The first flights
During the first flight with a 850mAh lipo Tattu 4s, the pendulum effect in flight was really unpleasant to each change of axis after replacing lipo a lighter 600MAH and with a different format decreasing the height of the whole, problem disappeared!
GR -199 with 600mah - average range 3min more suitable for flight stick at an end.
GR -235 with 850mAh - Average autonomy 4min30 more suitable for cooler flights.
After all this is a matter of taste ...
Same for the FOV of the camera 120 °'m saying with this lens, propellers really arrived in the middle of the visual field, the edges of the picture paraded like going to 200 kmh![[Image: 1f641.svg]](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/2.3/svg/1f641.svg)
.
I still had a lens Keychain 808 # 16 in the spare and after replacing the original lens with that of the Keychain, the FOV and positioning of the propellers in the field of view becomes much more pleasant to bear especially with propellers transparent.
The article Pimousse about this is available HERE
Here I use PID on minikeum.

Conclusion
The Minikeum is very fun to drive chassis. It is easy to develop. It is also very responsive to the axis changes. Very light, it is equally suited for indoor as for outdoor.
After correcting two problems that bothered me, I take a lot of fun with since.
You still have to take into account the fact that the propellers come in the field of view no matter what! It will appeal to some as others will not be able to do it.
Good flights!
