The TBS Source One Project

The SOURCE ONE project is a first of its kind collaborative FPV frame project initiated by Team BlackSheep. The frame is donated to the community to empower creators and makers, and integrate best practices and current trends faster into a continuously manufactured product. In return, it allows the local distribution network to have cheap and direct access to a good frame in order to allow them compete in an increasingly predatory marketplace.

The hope is for this frame to enable broad access to FPV thanks to a low price point, great documentation and wide availability of compatible parts and accessories, without violating other people’s intellectual property.

    Frame Came in under 100g……Also Flys pretty good, Im not a “Discount Mr Steele N.Z edition” kind of guy so durabillity level is likly well suited to what I want to do. GoPro Camera mounting is same as an ImpulceRC Apex. Fits a mini size 21mm camera (had to design and print spacers for a nano so watch that). Overall instantly lost 30g off my build, so $1.75 per gram lost. Could easy run 20-25mm standoffs with a TPU cam mount and lower CG. Certainly not a Pagent winner, but its light AF.

  5. Mark Connolly (verified owner)

    It’s a very nice looking frame and it fits a lot

  6. Vaughan Mccann (verified owner)

    Wicked frame, thick and strong

  7. Anonymous (verified owner)

    Looks cool, have assembled it but it would have been nice if it came with instructions.

  8. Devlin Lynden (verified owner)

    the last version came with a set of spare arms, shame that this one doesn’t

  9. Sef J. (verified owner)

    Way smaller than my old frame but incredibly strong and pretty easy to put together.

  10. Jack (verified owner)

    I liked the wider top and bottom plate on the v3 but still a sweet frame

  11. Simon Haines (verified owner)

    Please get spares for v 5

  12. Nick (verified owner)

    Stay away if you are wanting something that will last and wanting consistency. Frame tolerances are far to great and variable from piece to piece, really sloppy fitment. didn’t even get to crash it and now i throw in the bin. Save the headaches

  13. Graham Stack (verified owner)

    Good frame.

  14. George Armstrong (verified owner)

    Amazing frame, looks good, sturdy, extensive documentation online, lots of mods, and cheap!

  15. Carter McCallum (verified owner)

    Very, VERY durable 5″ frame.

  16. Casey (verified owner)
