My second build and my medium range quad. I built this for a freestyle rig, but got into long range after getting motors that are more for freestyle than long range. It's my test rig, and I keep it in my truck so if I come across a place to fly it is ready to go. Even with the motors I have on it , I can get out 4+ Km with it if I take it easy. Originally it was fitted with 5 inch rotors (props), but I have gone to 6 inch rotors and less pitch now, again for range. It will still get with it though. With 3inch pitch rotors, I can cruise at 60+ and it will do over 80 before the rotors have it run out of gas.

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