It's a good but little awkward frame. I have found the folding part being very impractical and personally when I used this frame I just left the arms unfolded. You really need to get some sort of thread locker for the frame since the constant small vibrations while flying WILL undo the screws and you're going to have a bad time. Other than that, if you want a hanging style frame this is a good pick.

TL;DR Good frame if you like the design.

Like other people have said, making the whole cage dampened creates unnecessary oscillations for the camera. I have to zip tie the cage to the top plate so it's stiffer. The frame is decent quality, but a little heavy for my setup (mutlistar elite 2204, afro 12A 5030 GF prop, kk2.1 mini, mobius, 600mw fpv transmitter, turnigy 1000mah 3s). It flies pretty fast since it's on 5in props, but it needs ~65pcnt throttle to hover so it lacks punch out power. Maybe I need to get some higher C batteries.
That aside, the folding mechanism is pretty neat. Would prefer a screw-less folding mechanism like the trifecta or the HK H-quad 240. But at this price point I can't complain.

Nice idea, but dampening the whole FPV cage really asks for problems as it will oscillate the vibrations. Only separate components like the recording camera and flight controller need dampening. This kit in a reigid version would be much more functional.
