My first version of Jaeger (https://rotorbuilds.com/build/12698) was very good, but i decided to rebuild it. Main reason was to replace outdated fc and at the same time upgrade to more reliable esc (Holybro Kakute F7 and Tekko32 F3 Metal). To make sure this build will handle 6s batteries i added 50v low esr capacitor. At the same time replaced rc link old antenna for the new one TBS Immortal v2. Other hardware are still great and there was no real reason to upgrade. EMAX RSII 2306 1900kv Race Spec motors with 6 inch propellers are smooth and very powerful. The weight of this build has slightly increased from 322 to 328 grams.

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..
