Didn't really care much for the Acro performance (TWR) of a 2" outdoors so I recently rebuilt my 2" Whirlygig into a 3" (https://rotorbuilds.com/build/19157)
This little Tri is uses Betaflight 4.1.1 and its "fancy" motor-filtering to provide superior handling.
Specs
Build weight 37 grams only camera but 54 grams with 2S 300mAh LiPo attached.
Note: Picture showing the scale is the same Tri but with the older 2" props. (Weights the same though)
Hover time 8:45 (confirmed)
Acro time 3:50 (confirmed)
Video
Updated 3/28/2020 with Nano Whirlygig's 1st spring flight. (man I'm out of practice)

awesome! got any dvr?
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..
