Airblade Intrepid just looks awesome to me and I had to buy it during Xmas sale. The frame is well cut with nice hardware. I would appreciated some additional M2 harware to easily mount my FC as it is not so common and I do not have it at hand (ordered).
I started with components placement. I had to disassemble the Mamba stack so I can try all the options. I ended up placing Mamba Micro stack in the back and rotating it CW 90 degrees. That resulted in custom m otor mapping as well as changing YAW orientation in BTFL. I like these nuances because they make you improvise and use you brain actually. One other positivity was discovery that Mamba stack could be mounted with M3 screws which I have plenty.
The front stack is Runcam Split Mini mainboard, 3D printed 20x20 ABS board, Oscarliang AKK backpack VTX and R9MM receiver.
I think I overshoot with frame selection. The IntrepidV2 Lite would be enough for these RCX 1306 4000kv motors. But other than that I am quite happy with the build.
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..

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..

Nice, can I ask the weight with a battery? I'm thinking of this setup but possibly dual camera and 1404 motors. I wonder if it will be under 250g?
Thanks
I run Dinogy 550 4s and 3s. With 4s it's around 230g, with 3s it's 215g I think. I think I should have gone with 3" Lite version. The Pro version is really more suited for heavier motors (like 1407 and higher).
