I reduced the weight as much as possible on this build while tunning it for maximum stability in extreme wash out conditions. Whoops are notorious for yaw and roll washout on dives. This tune is 100% stable on 3S 300mAh packs and lighter. Notice the flight controller is NOT stock. The BetaFPV F4 2-4S AIO Brushless V2 flight controller is harder to find now, but lighter than the V3.

Tango II Transmitter Model File. Just copy to the models folder in your Transmitter and add the file name no the models list in the Radio folder: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k14v0eh2ydvng4a/Thinking.bin?dl=0

Tango II Transmitter Sounds Files. Copy all the files to the sounds/en directory in the transmitter so the sounds function in the model setup: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x37ceviz5texty7/Sounds.zip?dl=0

Betaflight 4.2.6 Configuration for the BETAFPV F4 2-4S 12A V2 flight controller only. Reset configuration first. Then load the file in the CLI tab and save. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ilsbdpjlcnfrjgw/CLI%20Diff%20All%20Thinking.txt?dl=0

Update the ESC to BLHeli_m 16.9 firmware to get RPM filtering. Copy the 200MB of files to a local directory and click blheli-configurator.exe. The settings are in a photo. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3iu8pymyjn3yiqx/BLHeli%20Configurator.zip?dl=0

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..

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..
