I repurposed some parts from various prior builds that failed for this reason or that. The result is a 3 inch that does 720p DVR recording with some of the lightest motors and stack possible. it jumps off the ground with just the slightest throttle. Flight time is excellent if exploring but has plenty of pop for Acro moves.
This quad went down mid-air over a lake for reasons unknown. Static and then just gone.

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..
Read moreWith 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!
