I looked over a lot of very helpful websites and was able to gather lots of good information to succesfully complete my first 250 quad build. This instructable is my effort to create sort of a one stop guide from a pile of parts to taking flight. I will cover the required parts, assembly (wiring soldering, ect...), flight controller programming, and offer a few practice suggestions. Thanks!

If my mouth looks like it stinks real bad thats because it does. Kind of like the delta_fpv comment.

delta_fpv Oct 29, 2018

why does it stink? building a quad like this 2018 is a waste of money and effort. Soim wondering if there was any reason for it, maybe he had the parts laying around or whatever.

are you offended mister P0operMcWank?

EzRacerツ Oct 28, 2018

But sadly dude you can build a WAY better quad for just as much as this, or even cheaper. Idk why in the world you would use these ancient

I never thought I'd see the day where in 2018 someone was using a naze32. Nice build

I like it - very "retro"!
True, there are newer components, but if you are anything like most us when we first started out, these should serve as a good first build. About the only thing that worries me are the escs.

Yes, a classic quad!!! If people appreciate classic cars, we can appreciate classic quads

"This instructable is my effort to create sort of a one stop guide from a pile of parts to taking flight" What are you thinking, this build wasnt even good four years ago and noone should recreate it.

Jun 21, 2021

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.

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
