GEPRC CineLog35 V3 – a cinewhoop drone with GPS and ExpressLRS for smooth cinematic flights

GEPRC CineLog35 V3 WTFPV GPS ELRS2.4G is a 3.5-inch cinewhoop FPV drone that combines a guarded propeller design, powerful brushless motors and a low-latency control link. The third-generation CineLog35 is designed for smooth camera movements, precise flight paths and dynamic FPV footage. Equipped with a GPS module and an ExpressLRS 2.4 GHz receiver, this version suits experienced enthusiasts and content creators who want to configure their filming equipment to match their needs.

The WTFPV version is supplied without an FPV camera, video transmitter or video antenna. Its frame is prepared for installation of a DJI O4 Air Unit Pro video system, which must be purchased separately. This allows you to transfer a compatible existing video system or build a new filming setup.

Compact carbon fibre frame and propeller guards

GEPRC CineLog35 uses a GEP-CL35 V3 frame with a 142 mm wheelbase. Its main carbon fibre plate is 3.5 mm thick, combining structural rigidity with compact dimensions. The cinewhoop design surrounds the propellers with protective rings that help reduce the likelihood of direct contact between the propellers and surrounding surfaces.

The upgraded propeller guards are made from a tough, modified material. This design suits filming along carefully planned flight paths, whether moving through a space or combining several perspectives into one continuous shot. Propeller guards support this type of use, while precise control and adequate flight clearance remain essential.

Vibration-damped camera mount

The camera mounting system uses vibration-damping elements connected to the lower section of the frame. These help reduce vibrations transmitted from the motors and propellers to the camera, limiting the resulting wavy image distortion known as the jello effect.

The GEP-CL35 V3 frame is tailored to the DJI O4 Air Unit Pro module, with access to its USB-C port and memory card taken into account. This makes the installed video system easier to use and simplifies file transfers after filming.

The drone also supports a separate action camera. Included action camera and Naked GoPro mounts allow you to adapt the recording setup to your desired image quality and camera weight. An additional camera and its mount affect overall weight, handling and power consumption.

SPEEDX2 motors and 90 mm three-blade propellers

Power comes from GEPRC SPEEDX2 2105.5 2650 KV brushless motors paired with HQProp D-T90MM three-blade propellers. The 90 mm propellers and motors designed for 6S power provide ample thrust for both relaxed filming flights and faster manoeuvres.

Predictable responses to throttle inputs and changes of direction are important when filming. They allow the pilot to maintain a consistent speed, adjust altitude and combine turns and straight sections into a continuous camera movement.

GEP-F722-45A AIO V2 flight control system

At the heart of GEPRC CineLog35 is a GEP-F722-45A AIO V2 board, which combines the flight controller and electronic speed controllers on one compact board. This all-in-one design reduces the need for separate electronic modules and suits a cinewhoop frame with limited installation space.

The flight controller uses an STM32F722RET6 processor and an ICM42688-P gyroscope. Based on gyroscope measurements and pilot inputs, it adjusts motor output to achieve the desired attitude and movement. Its firmware target is GEPRC_F722_AIO, and 16 MB of onboard flash memory is available for recording flight logs.

The integrated 8-bit electronic speed controllers have a continuous current rating of 45 A. The system supports control protocols including DShot600, which carries motor control commands. Flight controller settings allow handling to be tailored to the pilot’s preferences and installed equipment.

ExpressLRS 2.4 GHz control and GPS module

The ELRS2.4G version includes an ExpressLRS 2.4 GHz receiver for a low-latency control link. This is particularly useful when the pilot needs to make quick, precise flight path corrections based on the camera feed. A compatible ExpressLRS 2.4 GHz radio controller or a controller with a suitable transmitter module is required.

The GPS module provides the flight controller with satellite-based position and movement data. Its use for displaying flight information or enabling GPS-assisted functions depends on the firmware and configuration. Settings and operation must be checked before using these functions.

The ELRS receiver handles the control link. To transmit an FPV camera feed, the WTFPV version requires a separately installed video system and compatible FPV goggles.

6S LiPo battery and flight time

The manufacturer recommends a 6S LiPo battery with a capacity of 1100–1300 mAh for GEPRC CineLog35 V3. An XT60EW-M power connector is used for the battery connection. Battery choice should take both filming equipment weight and intended flying style into account.

In the manufacturer’s tests, smooth cruising produced a flight time of approximately 7–8.5 minutes. Actual results depend on battery condition, flight speed, weather and the weight of the installed video system and action camera. Dynamic flying and a heavier payload increase power consumption.

Package contents and setup

The package includes a GEPRC CineLog35 V3 drone, two pairs of HQProp D-T90MM three-blade propellers, 20 × 220 mm and 20 × 250 mm battery straps, non-slip battery pads and a spare screw set. Also included are 1.5 mm, 2 mm and 3 mm L-shaped hex keys, an M5 wrench, a damping element installation tool, a USB-C data cable, a keychain, and action camera and Naked GoPro mounts.

Before FPV flight, install a camera, video transmitter and suitable video antenna, bind the ELRS receiver to your radio controller and check the drone’s settings. A flight battery, LiPo charger, radio controller, FPV goggles and any action camera used for recording must be selected separately.
