A nutmeg build. Flown several times just for testing on 4s without a gopro. Flies well enough, but I still need to tune the pids and rates a bit and cut a couple more props to test. Motors come down nice and cool even when I cant help but throw a power loop towards the end of the pack.

At the moment im running the DALPROP 4045BN cut down. but I have some: -DALPROP 5040 and 5045 -Gemfan 4052 -HQprop 75mm ducted and -Gemfan 3052 that I still have to cut down and run a pack or two through.

UPDATE 1-4-20: Photos are now out of date - Most of this build was transfered over to a 6s squirt build which is also published on my profile. This has become just a bit of a parts bin quad. Im printing a new set of ducts that Ill have a session mount on. The F440 is totally overkill for this build but its what I have and whats applicable to the 4s limit of the f20 II motors.

UPDATE 1-8-20: New iteration nearing completion. 1 of 2 new duct prints complete. Photos are added - White ducts with session are the new setup

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..
