This is the perfect quad for my backyard, the main drawback of this build is the range of the spi reciever in the Beta board. It is terrible. I wish I had gone with the no rx board and sacrificed a few grams. Unless you plan on never wanting to go more than 50 yards away, get the no rx version. My particular build seems to fly great on the Gemfan 3018 biblades, it didnt like the 3016 triblade props very much for some reason. I fly it on the emax 450mah 1s and GNB 600mah 1s. I actually like the few extra grams of the 600. It feels a bit smoother cutting through turns.
I plan to switch to plastic screws for the board and possibly aluminum or titanium motor screws,

I have the parts for build. Did you use the betaflight profile suggested on fpvcycle.com? I only ask because all I have is the 3016 tri blades and wondering if i should put 3018s on my next order.
i was wondering if that was possible , there is one pad for smart audio that I dont use, but I have no idea if its inverted or uninverted or whatever it needs.
The next step on this build it to get it on crossfire with the mini immortal T and a better vtx (my vtx03 in my 3" works great to fly all the way around my house). If I could keep the same performance and get better control and video range, that would be amazing.
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..

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..
