This is complicated to build. But its so lightweight and you can throw it around like you would an open prop build. Love it

Good idea but fragile!
Like others here, I've enjoyed the drone and its handling/performance capabilities. However, today I was flying and came around the corner of a building and there was a dog that headed for the drone. I avoided him and clipped a small branch in the process. The drone came down and landed in the grass. I went over to flip it over and keep on flying as I've had similar crashes/rough landings. However, this time the frame was snapped in 3 or 4 different places. So now I have to buy a new frame, which is almost 1/4 the cost of a new drone, and spend hours pulling apart and reassembling most of it. I like the concept but it seems a bit fragile for this type of flying.

The Cinemah is an excellent idea but it needs to be stronger..
I love my cinemah, my build uses emax 2004 motors, dji vista and elrs as RX, the quad is very responsive and It is one on my favorites but the frame needs to be stronger.
The whole build was quite difficult to assemble, it is true what's being mentioned on other reviews, the small nuts make the whole build a huge pain in the bu** but once you are done you wont have to do that again, now in my case I broke my top place, right front duct (which is the reason for my 3 stars review, even though I think it is an excellent idea).
I was testing pos hold (my cinemah uses INAV) and it was hovering at less than 2 feet, by mistake I moved my roll stick and the quad to freak out and crashed upside down over grass and yep it broke...
I was very disappointed because it was only at 2 feet (less that 1 meter) over grass, and now I will have to disassemble the whole thing to replace the top plate, to be honest I'm not even sure I will do because again the whole build is quite a challenge.
I would suggest anyone that has the intention of building this quad to be extra careful and avoid crashing at ALL cost.. the frame wont hold.. granted this is not a bando frame but I wonder what would happen if you crash indoors and hit the floor... which is why I built this drone in the first place.
Thanks

Good quality!
My first experience with newbeedrone
Frame went together surprisingly good for the complex design
Looks awesome!
