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..

Nice build! I have a set of those motors on a 2in I just built and so far I really like them. What length screws are you using to hold the props on? The ones I have dont really work that well. As soon as I throttled up to take off for my very first flight 3 of the 4 of my Hulkies exploded so I assume I tightened them too much and cracked the hub, and then later I lost a prop because they were not tight enough.
im using normal m2 screws. long enough to have a little bite , but not so long that it gets to close to the windings. those motors are pretty large for 2inch. It could just be those 2 inch props cant withstand the torque. Really not sure on that.
Did you happen to use loctite?
Thx, and to answer your question about length of screws, im not sure. i would check but dont know where that drone is. i can tell you that ive always just used screws long enough to grab the threads. those motors will strip very easy, so theres a fine line between over tightening, and not tight enough. so tighten until you feel decent grip, and stop there. Bring hex 1.5mm to field and make sure they havent come loose every other flight or so. no locktight used
Im replying to a questioned i already answered 2 years ago. lol
Nope, no locktight
My bad, I was meaning to ask HyDrone_FPV, because he mentioned having 3 out of 4 props explode lol. Yea the loctite and plastic thing is something that some people don't know about still, so I always ask when I hear of a prop exploding😆 Clean build man!! That specific frame is one of my favorites! Finally back in stock!
