this 3d printed nylon carbon frame is oozing with innovative design
it's super light - 5g with all hardware (mounting screws, top cover/camera mount, motor guards.
everything is well thought out. the newbeedrone camera didn't fit though because the PCB was too big. I used a generic JMT camera.
the beebrain lite board (this is a pre-release beta test version) is an amazing product on it's own. Diversity RX, built in vtx as well with active braking (a first for brushless whoops), custom OSD chip - all on one weight saving board, a perfect match for such a cool looking frame.

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..
