6s racer

This is my first 6s ultralight racer. Its total weight is 277grams including props and I could bring it down to 270g if I were to replace the motors with the new emax 2206 rsII or even the 2306 ones.

Out of curiosity I've tested it with the hqprop 5.5inch V1S props and a 6s LiIon pack and got a total flight time of ~29minutes while cruising. I was hoping to get over 30minutes with but the weather didn't help. I will repeat the test when the time allows.

It is amazing to see a racing setup fly for half an hour when cruising.

I want to do fpv freestyle with long flight time. which builds are better for iti ocean or 6s racer. And if ı can do fpv freestyle with this build, can i do freestyle when ı will attach gopro on this build

for long flight times you need light setups but also appropriate motors and props. my 6s racer setup is quite light and can carry a session without any issue but a 2207 mottor would be better if you want to carry a gopro often.

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..
