It flies so nice, I had to build it twice. I didnt know if I would like flying without a GoPro strapped to my quad, but this 3" is so fun to freestyle and has been getting more stick time, than my 5". This time around, I chose a night camera for those after sunset sessions. I got to fly with some awesome pilots when I visited Hawaii over the summer, and they flew till after dark with their night cameras. Now that I got my first 3" build out of the way, I decided to make a balance...Night and Day, Tomax and Xamot. (80's G.I Joe reference) Everything else under the hood is identical to my first build in every way, only difference is the FPV camera and sometimes the prop colors.

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..
