Martian Meg - Beater
By Watsamatta on Mar 25, 2018
This is a pseudo beater. Some things i just couldnt downgrade for the sake of solid fpv experience but wanted to learn to fly better with less worry about crashing expensive parts into wallet hurting oblivion.
Brain3D parts - the SMA antenna mount was meant for a stingy but because it's TPU it stretches just enough to fit around the rear posts of the Martian. I also slightly modified the SMA connector as i was not going to use the antenna holes that came with it, and mashed it up with the antenna hodlers brain3d sells separately.

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!

How are the motors?
To be honest, as i was installing them they all felt different when hand-spinning the bell some were smooth some were twitchy and the quality really did feel like a $10 dollar motor. That said, once i had the quad up and flying i was really really impressed. They stay cool, they have good low-end torque and are snappy as heck even at high kv's ( im running the 2800kv ones).
For a beater quad, i honestly would recommend these.. heck even for a low-end all i can afford quad these are just fine.
