Beta95X Pusher

This is an older build that did not last long. Meaning I built it and took it apart in a matter of days. I finished building it on November of 2020 but never published, it stayed as a Mockup in RotorBuilds. The reason why I finally publish it is because I wanted to use it as a comparison to the new build I just finished, the Beta95x v3.
So, why did I not like this build? To make a long story short, this quad could not do anything better than the iFlight DC2 that I have already have. If you have not seen the DC2 that I have built, you might say I am comparing to apples to oranges because they are different quads. Here is a link to the first build of the DC2:

https://rotorbuilds.com/build/23347

This build is not the newest version that is evern better (lower weight and new props). The DC2 has the same props guards as the 95x, uses a Caddix Vista, and carries a HD camera. But yet, it handles better, no jello in the FPV video, and most importantly it is significantly quieter. With some better PID tuning the 95X’s handling will improve, but nothing can be done about the noise. I would think it would be quieter because it was lighter. But it seems that a pushed quad setup will make it louder.

The only thing this quad has going for it is the slightly smaller footprint. You can probably squeeze it between smaller gaps. Other than that, the noise alone is a no go for me. You need to keep in mind, this is all in comparison to the DC2 that I would rather fly than a Beta 95x Pusher.

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..
