Warpquad 230(6") build. This is an ImpulseRC Warpquad LOS frame that's been outfitted for FPV with the addition of the Armattan Micro Pod on top. I've recently replaced the TBS Triumph with a dipole, removed the pod LEDs(incompatible with dshot), and wired up unify smartaudio. While I had it ripped open, I was inspired to take a few quick pictures for this post. The dry weight is currently 364g with the dipole antenna setup without battery. With the Tattu R-Line 1550 95C(192.6g) it's at an AUW of 556.6g. The Triumph setup as seen in the glamour shots adds around 17g.

How have you been liking the TBS linear antenna? Does it work well in most flying enviroments? What VTx power do you usually use?

It works pretty well in the open environment that I've been flying, wooded but not very dense. I do get more noise in the picture vs the triumph setup, but it's not really even distracting to me. I've exclusively been flying 200mw with it.

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..
