Finally moved up to 6s and decided to make a new race build as my older one is strictly 4s. i started out with the tmotor velox motors as I've heard good things about them as a premium budget motor. I then picked the Chief frame due to the price and weight, as well as the fact that there was a 15% discount on all lumenier products when I ordered (which explains basically all the electronics lol). I used the Razor pro esc since thats what Chief FPV runs, and just finished the stack with the remaining Lux fc and vtx. I chose the Caddx ratel micro over the pred v4 simply because I prefer caddx image better than foxeer.

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..
