For a quality build it’s hard to go past the Sector 5. Rugged, reliable and lots of space to build the frame out. 5 Inch is a very well defined spec – nothing out of the ordinary here.
FPV Frame HGLRC Sector X5 FR 5-inch Freestyle
FPV Frame HGLRC Sector D5 FR 5-inch Freestyle
X Pattern or Deadcat Style – You choose. The X geometry version is a slightly wide X.
Flight Controller Stack HGLRC Specter F460
Low profile but with all the connectors you need if you want to plug n play. 60 Amp rated and MPU 6000 if you’re that way inclined. I’ve had this same FC in my Syncmode V2 frame for over a year now.
Flight Controller Stack SpeedyBee F405 V4 BLS 55A
You can’t go wrong with SpeedyBee. This is the latest V4. Everything you need. 55 Amp plug n play and Bluetooth is a bonus for making adjustments in the field.
Motor iFlight XING2 2207 1750KV
Best size motor for 6S is 2207 and anywhere from 1750 to 1900KV. This is my pick for the perfect motor.
More pro freestyle pilots use the J33 or J37 props than any other. I run these J37 props on all my 5 inch. Thinner blades than Gemfan gives higher tip speed and less propwash.

2.5Watt for penetration. This VTX comes with a MMCX to SMA lead so it’s plug n play with this frame’s TPU mount.
Antenna Foxeer Lollipop 4 Plus Omni RHCP SMA Male
Best quality antenna is this Foxeer assuming you’re running RHCP for analog. If you want to save money try this FPV Racing one.

For a 19mm camera, the Runcam Phoenix is the best on the market for image quality.
