Shendrones Hydrophobe Water Resistant 5″ Cine Quad

Stop letting bad weather keep you from flying. The Shendrones Hydrophobe is the ultimate all-weather 5-inch cinematic quad frame, engineered to let you capture incredible footage in conditions that would ground other FPV drones. With its innovative water-resistant design, you can fly with confidence in rain, snow, or over water, getting the shots that no one else can.

The core of the Hydrophobe’s design is its unique combination of materials. A flexible TPU skirt wraps around the entire electronics bay, shielding your valuable components from moisture and dirt. This is paired with a 2mm aluminum mid-plate that acts as both a core structural element and a massive heat sink for your ESC and VTX, ensuring your electronics stay cool even within the enclosed body. For ultimate protection, the TPU skirt can be augmented with your choice of sealant.

Durability is paramount in the Hydrophobe’s construction. The frame is built around beefy 6mm thick carbon fiber arms, providing extreme rigidity and the strength to withstand tough flights and rough landings. For pilots who fly over water, the arms feature dedicated mounting points for adding custom floats. With different TPU skirts and camera mounts available for various FPV systems (DJI, Analog/Vista) and GoPro models, you can create a clean, integrated, and incredibly reliable all-weather cinematic machine.
