Nice little quick 4" X frame. I have the 5" version as well that I can swap everything over to.
The PZ0420m board cam with the 2.4 lens fits nicely and it well protected in the pod. The Bee Rotor FC has an OSD built in, but I bypass it. The FC and PDB combo has a a current sensor which I can get to Taranis telemetry.
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..

Did you dip your antenna into hot glue? I like the purple/orange combo, it's unique.
Clear shrink tube around the antenna and then inside is filled with hot glue.
Interesting, I've never seen that before. Does it work well to protect the lobe?
I've not crashed much with the antenna since I started doing this, but it seems to lock the lobes in very well. Been running triumph and the foxeer antennas on most by builds.
Is it heavy? Sounds a tad heavy.
What makes it sound heavy>? Not sure why it would be any heavier than any other 4" with 2205 motors. The camera is actually lighter than HS1177.
No, the antenna sounds heavy :)
Oooohhh... was in response to the hot glue.... gotcha. Well it does add some weight to it for sure. Not really one of my race quads so rather have the antenna more durable. Got the idea from nytfury a while back, so good enough for the world champ to practice with. He just gobbed it on there. Putting some shrink and filling it makes it a little cleaner looking.
