I don't know why you build quads this way but it's certainly more economic to buy quality parts less often so you an have reliable and npon-sketchy machines which are easy to mantain, probably way more durable and even if it's because you like experimenting with quad geometry or concepts just learn cad and have your pieces manufactured which will be way better and cheaper in the long term. Just ugh these quads bother me on a deep level.

All cool man I understand your point of view .
No one is forcing you to look at my posts.
I could critisise some for not having an imagination or sense of humour.
But i keep my mouth shut.
EDIT . It was late and i missunderstand.
Sorry for being turse

Nah man, your quads are fucking creative and a great use of resources. But the potential. You could make KILLER quads tho

Im old and set in my ways, i see the potential in cad . used it years ago and if i was younger and hungrier i would seriously consider being more profesional. but at the moment im just having a bit of fun.
I apolijise if my previous reply was a bit pointy

was caught up, sorry for the delay,for hovering around or light cruising? well balanced carbon props are a good idea, but I dont have other informed recommendations lol though acrobatic props are hard to think of for this kinda motor

Jun 21, 2021

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..

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
