Built my first Beecore Whoop using the E010 frame and Chaoli Special Sauce motors. One of the motors melted and died so I am on to the 2.0 version of this one. Now using the E010S frame from www.racedayquads.com and a new set of Faster motors. Cut a port in the camera mount so I can reach the USB and got rid of the rubber standoffs.

Sold to TJ Bowman - Moving to Beecore v2 and 7mm builds as they're just more feature packed.

Thanks! Just got most of this, but got the cam off of RDQ as well. All in one order.

You know those antennas that come with any full size VTX
they call them rubber duckies
If you break them open there is a little dipole inside :smile:
You cut the wire out of it and now you have an antenna with a short section of coaxial cable
take an exacto or strippers and strip a bit of the outer sheath
that will reveal some silvery braided strands that surround the middle part
split them and twist into 2 pieces so it looks like a Trident
the middle part will have a very thin sheath over it too
BE CAREFUL and strip that off
now you should have 3 pieces of wire
you solder each to the VTX on your whoop
the 2 outside ones are ground
the one in the middle is signal

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..
