I have a really similar build on 3" https://rotorbuilds.com/build/24834
Just blew an ESC on the HGLRC 13amp :(
They're out of stock everywhere now!

I was thinking of going to an AIO whoop board for higher amp rating but the 16x16 looks way cleaner.

Hi dude! Love your build just a few questions.
Why did you choose 12xx motors instead of 110x?
Have you tried bigger battery 650mah? Do you have any video by chance?

beta 1204 are super smooth and got great punch and no i think 650mah is to big and heavy for the tadpole the 450-4s is like the bigest battery that actualy fits on the frame. and already will feel a litle woble on rad pitch moves. in 4s the punch is emazing as strong as a 5inch and in normal flight feels super stable and locked. I realy like the way it performs its funer and faster than any other micro i have tried.

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..
