My first FPV wing experiment. To save some time I purchased the FT Goblin kit. $25 well worth the time saved.
Pictures are after the first maiden flights yesterday... damn... its fast... super fast and super fun. The S6R autolevel mode performed really well but configuring it is a pain. I still managed to crash it on the fourth pack. Repaired and ready for ripping.. I haven't flown it with FPV yet so I'm excited to give that a go this weekend.
Flight time on 2200 3S battery is 10+ min hauling ass. COG on this is a pain, still don't have it quite right and there is not much room for adjustment. FT recommends a much smaller battery so perhaps that will help.

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..
