The Hobbymate Asteroid is a new 3 inch quadcopter that is available in kit, BNF or PNF formats that is available with motors and electronics suitable for 4s or 6s (!) operation. Following on from the awesome Hobbymate Comet (built here and reviewed here) this is another premium set of components at a spectacular price. It is available exclusively from HobbyCool.com here:

The purpose of this blog is to show how I have built in close detail and how I have set up betaflight software for optimal performance. Note you can spend an extra $30 to have this build with a FRSKY receiver but I always like to tinker and optimise my build which is why I have chosen this path. Update: review now completed here
I like to take my time on a build and ensure I have a clean well lit area. Makes things easier when I inevitably drop screws or small parts on the floor. My recommended list of budget tools is here.

1. Overview of all the parts. Components are outstanding, I will cover this more in part 2 (the review)

2. Closer look at the motors. These are more beautiful in real life with a 1 piece bell

3. This Iflight stack is compact, well desined and capable of up to 6s!

4. Lightweight Caddx EOS2 cam. This is the 4:3 version which gives a much better FOV than the 16:9 version as found on the trashcan
