Awesome to see uni-rotors here :) - old fixed wing pilot here!
Q. Can you provide more write up on the FC setup for fixed wing?
Q. Battery?
Q. Flight time?

Thanks saahbs!

I just got into this hobby during lockdown, so I don't know exactly what settings you want from the FC, but I'll provide my best. I have the Matek F411 WSE which is an awesome little board and I'm running INAV on it. The plane has an elevator, ailerons, and no rudder, so at first I just used the nano skyhunter preset on INAV but then I set it up to where the ailerons are now elevons. I've only have a few flights with it and the weather in UK is terrible, so I haven't had time to play with the settings much. I haven't even flown it in a normal configuration yet, lol. Other than that, there's nothing else really special with the setup.
I've been using a Turnigy 2200 3S but I want more oomph and the Turnigy is a tight fit, so I'm going to make a 2000 4S with some li ion 18650s from a power bank where the circuit board stopped working. I'll let you know how that goes.
I haven't flown it for time yet but I did fly for like 10 minutes but I could probably get a few more out of it.
Any other questions, let me know!

Build a 5" Long Range Drone - Transformer Ultralight

Jun 21, 2021

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..

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

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..
