After completing the Helix build, I thought I'd spruce up my previous quad. This is my Red20RC R220. I've been flying this quad for over 2 years now (first year with 1806 motors and 3s). The AUW including the GoPro and battery is 596g. By now the old Naze32, heavy frame and D4R-ii won't cut it for my flying. I still remember the old Baseflight days this quad went through! :D

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..
