So this started out as a new build in January, turned out to be my first 6s quad tried it for some time and just recently took it apart and am looking to move back to 4s and try a new frame out. This was a pretty great build and 6s is pretty nice but I just like the feel of 4s. Also the Glide frame is a really nice frame for the price and I like the option to use true x arms or Deadcat Arms but the hardware is very random and never could get the arms to tighten down very well. On the upside 6s was great on kiss and can't believe how well the Airbot Typhoon ESC held up so well on it!

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..
