Chameleon Ti

This is my main build that I use for freestyle.

Notes

  • I recased the original Rotor Riot FPV camera so that I would have the three holes needed for this frame, RR recently updated the camera so that you can just buy the version with the three screw holes.
  • The superglue is used to protect the edges of the frame mainly around the motors
  • The thread locker glue is for the motor bolts which is needed for this combo frame and motor
  • I run the pigtail out the front but with more wire length to keep it away from the GoPro
  • The Hellgate Buzzer will keep when you eject your battery which is basically a must have feature for all my builds after I lost one of these a few weeks ago

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
