ImpulseRC Reverb / SeriouslyPro F7DUAL / T-Motor F40 Pro II

This is probably my cleanest build ever. I love how the F7DUAL and the stacking board takes care of all the wires I would have to lay around and basically how the frame is empty. The only downside is I couldn't get the Caddx Ratel to work with Betaflight camera control on this board without external capacitance, it just doesn't work so I will just be a peasant using the included cable and joystick - life is hard I guess :)

Other than that not much to say, it flies amazing, I use both gyros and after a bit of tuning and tweaking I can say it's my best machine so far. In the future I will probably replace the Gopro with a HD/FPV camera and save some weight maybe, so I it doesn't bother me yet.

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..
