The OmnibusF4 had video blacking out and random resets. Swapped in the HGLRC AirbusF4. Now, with the EWRF e709TM3 and Foxeer Lollipop 2 I get the best video ever. I got an RSSI warning at the far end of the field while the video was still all good.
Rebuilt again after breaking an arm. RSSI was dropping cuz of a broken RX antenna. So I swapped the FC/VTX and RX with the same combo I used on my second FlosStyle build. The two builds are now the same other than the motors. Dropped the motor guards and used 1mm plastic washers and 2.5mm O-rings to lift and dampen the motors some, this is required to give the motor shaft C-clip space to move without getting snagged on the frame or pre-cut soft-mounts. I burned a few motors out on prior builds before I figured out the plastic washer and rubber O-ring sandwich.
Replaced the og aluminum flange locknuts for the arm plate sandwich with Carbon Steel. Much tighter now without stripping. I'd say the weakest point in the excellent FlosStyle frame kit are the included aluminum flange locknuts -- those are garbage and will strip before you can tighten down the arm sandwich proper.
Leaving the original build pics here to show a neat way to mount that type of VTX in a FlosStyle.
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..
