Went with the deadcat configuration to keep props out of the gopro footage.
Betaflight 4.1 on a Mamba F722S F50PRO Stack. Stock PIDs with slightly lower filtering. Love using SpeedyBee iPhone app over bluetooth for configuration.
The Avenger V2 2507 1500Kv's seem about perfect for a balance of speed and efficiency on 6s for the elevation at which I fly in CO (6000').
Seeing 10+minutes of flight time at conservative throttle settings on 6s 2000MAh PyroDrone packs, which is acceptable enough for the medium-long range flying that I do. It could certainly lift a much larger pack, but I'd probably have to under-sling it.
AUW (with GoPro and props): 644g
So far, reception on the Mach 3 VTX and R9mm has been fine out to a few miles - will try further out once I've fully tested GPS Rescue mode.
Was going to sleeve the motor wires, but decided to make some more protective TPU wire guards for this frame instead.
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..

I recently bought the same frame and was browsing Rotorbuilds for inspiration. I really like the clean look of yours and am considering using the same motors/battery size. I moved last year from basically sea-level to CO and have been in the process of adapting my builds to the elevation. I really appreaciate the info!
