I planed to build this 4 months ago. The hardest part is find motors for it. The bottom frame of this build is custom 16x16 moto mount from Armattan production.
Not follow the 4 inch LR light weight trend. This is heavie 280g dry weight. I build this for free style. At the time planed this build I pland to user Hyperlite 2204 3000kv, it alway out of stock, luckily iFlight introduce 2203.5 moto for protek35. I know that is the perfect motors for my build.
It power and very fast. With 850mah 4s I got 4 minutes freestyle. 1550mah 4s about 6 minutes. I not try maiden cine yet but I thing it easy to got 10 minutes.

Moto is not hot at all, very cool even hard freestyle.
The frame is really tight I have to move capacitor on top of titan case, there is no free space. You better come with Caddx vista for easy build. I personally dont like vista.

Did you have to re-drill the motor holes to mount the 2203?

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..
