This build was done for the currently running International Game of Whoop (IGOW:
)The setup is more or less what is now sold as Beta 85 pro2 (so F4 AIO, 1103 11000Kv and 2" props on a 85mm frame), but I added a trashcan canopy and upgraded the camera to a runcam nano v2 and the VTX to the Diamond VTX to have onboard DVR.
after some jello issues, I went with sticking the VTX directly to the FC with double-sided sticky tape, and to use zip ties to hold the canopy down. I also added some foam above and below the lens.
Now it flies jello-free, and it does so pretty well!
Happy with the build.

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..
