"The Vector is an expertly designed freestyle frame loaded with options."
The Vector is a 5″ freestyle frame from Kinetic Aerial that sits in the top 5 frames that I have built and flown. The design of the frame incorporates all of the essential features that freestyle FPV pilots demand in a premium frame.
The Vector also happens to be the only frame besides the ImpulseRC Alien, that can make use of the Mr. Steele PDB without having to modify the frame.
Making the decision to use KISS components throughout was easy, due to the seamless integration with the Mr. Steele PDB, and the fact that I was able to keep the components to a minimum (without sacrificing quality). This is important for several reasons, but most importantly because the frame is designed with 15mm of clearance.
I would consider the Vector to be a moderate to advanced build, however with this build tutorial anyone should be able to complete the build.
