Odin

The Odin is named after the Russian word for "one" but pronounced like the Norse god. After my first quad, the Zero, I wanted to upgrade some things for my next iteration. Better VTX, better motors, switching from FlySky to FrSky, and a warrantied frame. This build ticks all the boxes! I've flown it a few times so far, and it's performing great. I was slightly worried about the high kv motors, but they fly very smooth and I don't go full throttle often enough to crisp my batteries. Smart audio is the best. I buried the Unify below the FC and I never need to push buttons or flip DIP switches. I would recommend every part I've used; no complaints here.

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..
