FlexRC Ascent X 2.5 (Lexi)

Flipped ORI32 180 degrees and rotated -90 degs so motor pads are facing up and Lipo pads are to the rear. Also, rotated Airbot Omnibus F4 Nano V6 -90 degs so USB port is in back and 8-pin connector is in front (the same as the 8-pin connector for the ESC). Got both the ESC and FC seperately which also meant I needed to purchase the 3cm 8-pin connector seperately. Also, turned the Caddx F2 upside down and used Image Flip so I could get more camera angle without the camera connector in back making contact with the stack behind it and therefore limiting its angle. This stack in conjunction with the T Motor F15 1106 6000 kv mottors riding on the FlexRC Ascent frame is a Dream 2.5-inch Micvro!

I have built an Acrobrat with this Airbot stack and I still remember the pain of endlessly rotating things. Amazing how you have done it in this frame! 👍

Thanks! Flipping and rotating wasn't too bad at all. I really like the Ascent frame. It has so much room, vertically too! i was able to get the ESC, FC, Runcam DVR, VTX and RX in one stack and still not be over the top of the frame! First time I've used the Runcam DVR. i like it.

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..

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..
