My second finished build. I started building a racer on top of Floss 3.0 frame from leftover and second-hand sourced parts. When getting the missing pieces I "accidentally" ordered also Floss 3.0 lite frame, Hyperlite 2206.5 1722kv motors and Hobbywing 20x20 40A from a huge discount and decided to make also 6S racer. Pretty happy with how it flies and great image quality of Oscar Phoenix camera. I don't like the current antenna setup that was quickly hacked to make this thing flying. That is going to change anyway as I'm planning to replace the VTX with Unify Pro32 Nano attached to 20x20 mounting board together with XM+ (hope it fits as space is quite limited in this frame)

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..
