3D printed the frame while waiting for it to be cut by Armattan Productions to plan the layout. This was a complicated build due to the oversized 20x20 boards of the Airbot stack. Mounted them rotated 90 degrees in the end to allow me to fit the VTX and Turtle board in the second stack position.
Have upgraded to the glass Turtle lens which was a decent upgrade.
There is a small SPDT switch which allows me to switch between the Turtle and the Monster. The Monster has a significantly better FPV feed to the Turtle.

The xt60 and antenna mount, looks very useful. Would be excellent if you are able to share the model (the STL file), thanks.

yeah its on the quad itself. i only use it to set up the angle. like i said in the build, i reqlly dislike the FPV feed from the turtle so i never use it in flight.

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..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! 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..
