I rebuilt my Diatone GT-R90...long story but basically I had the frame, camera and XM left over from a project. I wanted to build this and give it to a friend. This build was TIGHT! I had to take out the screws and spacers a few times because the VTX was hitting on the back of the frame. I dont think this stack was a good choice for this build. I should have got something that didnt have a solid connection between the ESC and FC board because it was hard to shock mount it. I ended up mounting the 4 main screws through rubber shock mounts. So the entire stack is shock mounted. Probably not as good as just mounting the FC. I like the HGLRC VTX 2 a lot. It's light, mounts easily, and the smart audio works great. I picked up the motors on sale. I had to reduce my P and D fairly low to keep the motors cool.

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.
