Ratkwad HD 3D
By Knockout3DFPV on Feb 27, 2020
I finally got around to building this quad the way I wanted it. You can check out my original build here https://rotorbuilds.com/build/21036. I upgraded from analog to HD and its absolutely amazing! The frame perfectly fits the air unit and a 1500mah 4s battery. I also got a 3D printer last month and luckily the people over at Flynoceros have uploaded all the TPU parts to Thingiverse :D I printed all the parts in Matter Hackers Purple TPU and have created two custom parts. The first one is the hood, I made a remix by merging it and an immortal T mount made by UltiBots on Thingiverse and the second is just a simple battery pad I modeled to give the battery a flat surface to sit on. The Zurple Gemfam 3D props are the last thing I added and they really brought the whole build together. I'll try to remember to get some DVR footage next time I fly for anyone thats interested.
heres just some dvr from the goggles, the camera vibration was from the camera mount bracket being loose.

Guides & Reviews
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..

I think you hit on the right application of this frame. Low camera angle, 3D!! I love the frame design (price is steep, though). I'm looking to do something similar (even 3D setup, but with analog video). How are the motors/ESCs holding up to the direction changes? Also, so cool to see the props change direction in flight!!
3D is a blast, once i tried it i havent switched back, i deffinitly recommend everyone try it :) so far i havent had any issues, i know the motors can handle it no problem because i use the same ones on my armattan badger that's my daily basher. The esc's i dont know about lol i dont have the osd set up because i didnt have any spare uarts so i cant see amp draw but i bet it gets pretty high, its deffinitly a heavy quad :p
