The Airblade Meringue is getting some new love with an updated pod! The TPU pod allows for direct mount of a GoPro Session, a micro cam, Axxi or Lollipop antenna and can fit a 3 layer stack. This build is the 5" Lite variety, which means it's made for 12mm bolt circle motors such as 1407/1408/1506/1507/1608. I have found that the best props for this are a light 5" bi blade or 4" tri (hq 4x4.3x3 v1s), though they also work ok with a light tri such as the TMotor 5143 just watch that throttle if you're using a small battery.

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
