I always like to fly in the woods but my average flight duration is 15 seconds before I hit a branch.
SO I decided to build a 3" ducted cinewhoop.
Maiden video:
Initially I wanted to build a Cinebrat (Acrobrat with ducts) but apparently it's quite some cumbersome with TPU ducts and cutting props etc.
The CinematiX frame uses PETG for the ducts and TPU for the gopro and antenna mount.
3" props fit without cutting, only thing I had to do is sand down the little seams from the 3D printing.
The build is obviously super heavy: 484g (with gopro and 850mAh 4S lipo), but it flies surprisingly well in acro and is capable of some (sluggish) freestyle moves.
Of course the cinematic shots are super nice with a gopro instead of a runcam split or similar.

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..

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..
