I released this design a few months ago and felt like giving it a little update and making a nice new build. The perfect excuse to give in to my chronic FPV addiction and get some shiny new parts in awsome matching colors haha ;-)
The frame is available on Thingiverse along with all my other designs https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3452434
and in the comments you can find a YT video explaining my build and the frame in depth.

Cheers,

you can use the ones that come with the stack. Hardly matters overall :-)

Youove got some of the best looking designs ive seen, keep it up! I really like this design on 3 or 5 inch, its got a convenient element with the traditional frame construction but also incorporated the fact that you can get better design when not restricted by using flat carbon plate with better arm design. followed.

I love it... I just got some Hyperlite 2204's I'm gonna put on an ARS-5, but I'm still waiting on this company to deliver my Calimero (Apex Sonic 1103 9999KV's !?). I can really just see some of those 5-6S HGLRC 1408's on the Asterix. APC's all around... It's gonna be a fun summer!

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..
