I know there are already a couple threads on this one, but since my sample came from a different vendor, I think it should be enough cause for another thread, and even though it's never as popular as other threads
I like posting my own threads
Anyways onward>>>>>
The Youbi arrives in a nice looking, high quality box made of thick cardboard. It reminds me of an iphone box where it's difficult to remove because of the suction that's created when the box is closed. Inside, the contents are neatly arranged and the quad is safely encased in foam protecting it against the harsh journey.

Introduction
The Youbi XV is a 130mm FPV-ready Racing quad manufactured by a company called Awesome?!? Electronics are encased inside a plastic canopy and consists of a 4in1, 20amp Blheli-S, ESC setup -it also acts as the PDB with contact pads for a buzzer and LED's. Residing on top of the ESC's, is the F3 flight controller with an integrated 5.8ghz, 40 channel VTX. The youbi's frame is a 2mm thick carbon fiber plate ...that's pretty much it lol. Of course there is the canopy too, which acts as protection for the hardware tower inside. The Youbi is powered by 1306 motors @3600kv with a max thrust of 265 grams per motor -it's definitely a screamer!

High quality box!
Safely encased in foam, the Youbi is well protected for it's travel across the earth.
2 i/o cables (1 for ppm & 1 for sbus) also 2 battery straps
difference in cables
5.8ghz dipole antenna, JST to XT30 pigtail. I definitly would not use the JST connector for anythign above a 2 cell.

Motors are 1306 3600kv -they definitely scream

Internals
Removing the canopy is easy, 2x 1.5mm hex head screws are basically all that holds the canopy on. Push the canopy forward slightly and a little wiggle and it comes right off.
Here you can see the F3 flight controller, which has an integrated VTX.
I've already connected my receiver here, but with the canopy off you have access to the hardware tower, and the microUSB port!
bottom of the FC, here is the VTX module. There are also pads to solder on a buzzer or LEDS.
Just below the FC/VTX is the 4in1 ESC board. These ESC's are 20amp blheli-S, so Dshot capable! Also on the bottom of this picture are contact pads that you can solder an XT60 pigtail to.
Bottom view of the ESC board with a view of the XT30 connector. You can easily keep this on, even if you choose to solder on an XT60
Here is the Youbi's 600tvl camera. It has a 100 degree field of view, and is set in place at a 25 degree angle. Unfortunately the mount holding the camera does not allow for adjust ability.
