fun little 2.5", pretty lightweight at 97g without lipo. Flies well on 3S and a little ripper at 4S.
Enjoy!

Dude that is a little ripper of a formula.. I've made several builds based off of this one little quad, and I love every single one. Those props are wicked fun. I just built a 3.5" version with the 3.5" avan props, on a tp3 frame with double stacked 4" arms. The canopy design can make anything into a light hd ripper. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks a lot Mike!
I'm really curious about the "new" 3.5" category. If you want, share your build here - I'm sure you'll inspire others in return :)
Happy flying!

I'm in the process of building mine right now (using the 2.5in Twiglet frame) and I have to give massive kudos to how clean your build is, this is the hardest build I've ever done hands down. Just getting the vista up in the canopy took me an hour lol.

I'm hoping you can help me with regard to the Crossfire nano, where did you put yours?

edit: I put it between the top of the AIO and the bottom of the Vista, plenty of room

yes its a bit of a hussle to get it all clean but what I did was first solder the motors, then the Crossfire nano (yes, I also put it between FC and vista), then assembled the top (cam, push in vista, antenna) and then finally the vista cables to the FC.

by the way I have a 3" coming up and will put it on rotorbuilds as well :)

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..
