This is a version of the Chameleon Ti with ESC 4in1, on a clean build with all features

I wanted a clean build, but also having all the features.
It has:

  • Betaflight OSD
  • 32kHz Gyro et FC
  • SmartPort Telemetry
  • VTx setting by OSD or LUA script
  • Audio from the cam
  • Runcam RotorRiot settings by OSD
  • LEDs and Buzzer

I choosed to get the XT60 wire coming from the front of the frame. Like that the build is very clean and there is no wire from the battery that can go and get destroy into the props. The way the XT60 wire is leaving by the side make it isn't bothering the HD cam at all.
Because of the XT60 wires coming out in the front part of the frame, I rotated the ESC of 180°, so I only needed to cross the ESC wires signals from the FC to the ESC.

I changed the VTx plate for this nice 3D printed part which allow to have a 45° VTx antenna mount and a better and more solid RX antenna mounting system. Here is the link of the 3D part: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2759468

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..
