4/27/2018 - My Eachine Wizard X220 recently went to a new home, so I have a spot to fill in my fleet. The two frames I've had my eyes on were the Ummagawd Remix and the Realacc Real4. When It came time to finally pull the trigger for a new frame, I decided against both. The Remix looks a little too tight for my taste, and now that I have a few builds under my belt and I'm flying well, I'm not that interested in building any more clones. I ended up going with a 6" Reverb in purple. After finding the accessory kit for it on Brain3D, I had the same one printed, and I'm in the process of deciding on what parts to use. I'm going to make this one of my summer builds so I'm not in a huge rush to get this thing together.
4/30/2018 - The frame and all the 3D printed parts came today. Words can't express how impressed I am with the print quality from Brain3D.
6/6/2018 - I came on here to update my parts list as I finally ordered everything I needed to finish this build and to my suprise, I ordered exactly what I already had on my list. Hopefully that's some kind of sign. Now that all the parts are ordered, I had some motivation to assemble the frame. I hope it flies as good as it looks.
6/13/2018 - I finished it up the other night, but I haven't been able to get it out to maiden yet. This is my best build to date. It has audio, Tramp control through the OSD, and I also have camera control using the RunCam adapter. I'm waiting to publish the build until I get some flight footage up. Going to take it out tonight and try to get some golden hour footage.
6/16/2018 - I was finally able to get some maiden flight footage yesterday. This quad has a ton of power and feels really locked in on ButterFlight. This is my second 6" build running 5" props and I love the way they fly. They seem to just float through the air. Time to start planning my next build!
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..

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..
