so this is my second low deck build but this one is very much built for coastal flying and been a stable cam platform. arms are 6mm thick and in this length the max prop size is 5.5". with the 2mm arm braces, the 3mm battery and lower plate you've got 5mm of carbon either side of the arms making this thing SUPER stiff.. which i hope translates to a nice clean airframe tuning wise. she is pretty much a full time 6s setup hence the 5.1-5.5" props but you could cut longer arms and build it as a 6" pretty easy. there is also a hero7 pod with the same kinda gps tray off the back of the camera to keep it nice and clear of RF noise and like my lowride design it uses a nice clean split stack arrangement with thoughs to wire routing and cap placement.

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..
