This build took way too long to complete. What started out as early access to a frame that sold out in moments quickly turned into a build that had to wait for all of the electronics due to a mail delivery strike (thanks Canada Post). That took a MONTH to cross Canada.
However - finally done, finally maidened. Finally fantastic.
This was a fun build with plenty of room no matter which components you chose. I went with BrainFPV Radix and Hobbywing stack which marry beautifully in this setup.
Overall very happy. Can't wait to build up the DC 7" version...
Side note: Jordan's Project399 velcro straps are fantastic. Well worth way more than the low price he's charging for them.

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class!

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 a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..

What's the dry weight on this puppy? Love the look.
Hey Thanks! The build has changed a bit in that I'm now running Hobbywing 2306 2400kv motors.
Weight now without gopro, battery or props is 386g.
Great, thank you. I am planning a Super G build now. Do you have any video noise issues running the Crossfire receiver close to the Micro Eagle?
