This is my crack at building a voodooquads 210, it is an absolute rocketship compared to my zmr250 on 4s. I was aiming for the cleanest, lightest build possible while still maintaining the osd for simple statistics. I'm running betaflight with acc disabled. Rates are 0.75 pitch/roll, 1.0 yaw, rc rate 1.18. Pids are currently mostly betaflight luxfloat defaults

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..
Read moreWith 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..

Looks like a nice little build. Do you prefer flying this over your 250?
Absolutely, the 250 handles like a slug in comparison, granted the 250 has a cc3d and 2206 2000kv motors but the pure acceleration and agility of the 210 setup is nutty
So with that mind do you recommend a 210 over a 250 for a first mini build?
Honestly go with the zmr250, cheap, and hard to break compared to the vdq (broke the frame in less then a week ), but then again, i fly stupid fast through trees. Zmr250 get the fpvmodels zmr250 v2...either from china or from getfpv or something..4mm arms make it hard to break
