Wanted to build a brushed Whoop that could be flown around my driveway and backyard in a bit of a breeze without being pushed around like my 65mm Whoops. This build ended up working out very well.

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.
