ImpulseRC Reverb with a HelioRC flight controller.
SInce I had been flying my Alien for a while, and it was starting to show wear, I decided it was time to build the Alien's little brother -- the Reverb.
This frame is lighter and feels more nimble in the air. It is constructed a little differently than the Alien (it doesn't require a PDB), but it is still shaped like an Alien and flies similarly to my Alien. Many people refer to the Reverb as the Alien 2.0, and now I understand why.

The iFlight XL5 V3 is a fantastic freestyle frame for the price. It features chamfered edges on some very nice quality carbon fiber. My goal for this build was to use high quality components at a relatively low price. Not only that, but I managed to reduce the number of solder points to the bare minimum. I've never built such a plug-in-play quad! The flight controller has an integrated VTX and doesn't..
