Introduction

This is 1st build for freestyle frame which is called Puda240 (5inch).

Goal and Parts Selection

This is my main freestyle quad for fliming video with Yi 4K. Useally, i travel somewhere with FPV drone. It's perfect to fly and recording is soild. Also, i designed 3d parts for Yi 4K action cam. parts are normal. Motor is 2306 2600kV. ESC 4 in 1 35A. Speacially, FC is super. I use RF1 firmware with Helio board. It's awesome.

Frame & Build Tip

The frame is rock and soild so don't need any reinforcement. Just build and go to test after fly it. That's simple. Arm is wider than recent frame. It's more advantage for mechanical properties. it's not east to bend the arm. Also, this drone range is not over 1km. So i just put the RX antenna "L" shape. If you want to bould this frame, i recommend to build with single ESC beacuse the stack space is not enough.

Flight Test

AUW(all-up weight) is 696 g with battery, propeller and action cam. I have been using this frame almost a year. i have never broken it. never had problem with farme and parts. Only FPV cam has been changed. beacuse i do not need Runcam device which can change cam setting by TX. It's cheap and valuable frame.

You can check my whole my video which are recorded with this drone. So i really love it. i have one of other brand new frame but i haven't opened package a year. Lol.

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..
