Some people are reporting that the link in their email is still not working. Sorry for the confusion. Patreon was updating the text of the link, but not the underlying url. Please use this one.

The first post had the giveaway labeled as June, which caused some confusion. This is a re-post with the info in the form updated just to make sure everybody sees it. If you previously entered the July giveaway, your entry is still recorded.

To be honest I think this quad is flying kind of sloppy.

I flew Mr. Steele's KISS quad, which sells for $900 on GetFPV. I haven't flown KISS in years, and this is supposed to be one of the best. So what did I think? Patrons get a first look!
