Updates:
Upgraded it to digital and Crossfire.
Since I put racewire on this rig, it is very enticing to try new motors. I went through these Pulsar, some XIng-E 2207, some Eco II 2306, and finally arrived at these Cyber Xing 2306.5 for its 10mm bearing. I'm really liking these 2207.5/2306.5 plus size motors on full hero carrying freestyle quads.
I have swapped out every part of this build by now except the frame. The frame has been holding up well, but maintainability is really not that good, too many screws to mess with.

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..
Read moreWith 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!
