As Captain Jack Sparrowe said: "Wherever we want to go, we go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. That's what a ship needs. But what a ship is...what the Black Pearl really is...is freedom"

My second Toothpick Build called "Black Pearl".
As I'am part of the Facebook Group "TWIG Builders" I became quick a big fan of the TWIG Frame.
Building this beauty made fun and was easy (not as hard, as the Sanchez 3" with 1404 Motors)
Flys pretty nice and I love the 5000KV with the AVAN Rush 2.5", in my opinion a perfect match!
Weight is 55g without Battery.

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.
