FR7 - Mid-Range Cinematic Quad

I recently lost my go-to cinematic quad, a 6" Flynoceros Skoll v3. It was arguably my favorite quad. Sadly, a RTH error caused it to crash into a river, and I haven't been able to find it. So, I decided after some time that I would build something bigger and better to replace that hole in my fleet. Enter, the FR7. I went all out with all the bells and whistles I could want, and she is a BEAUTY! I recently got a 3D printer and my first big project was prints for this frame, and I want to give myself a pat on the back for those considering I only had a few weeks of time with the printer before making those parts. I am still in the process of tuning this beast, but here's the first video I made with it!

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..
