Lots of room to build. Shout out to Sergio for the sexy vinyl!
Would have been a seemless build if not for the 2 faulty DALRC F722 flight controllers I went through. When using BLHeli via FC USB, only 3 of 4 escs were recognized - on two distinct flight controllers! Had to rip apart the build and replace the FC with a Bardwell F4. Now everything is working properly. Can't wait for Spring to come.

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..
