This build is a transfer of Meteor 75 lite that is included with BetaFPV Advanced Kit 2 to a Twiglet Mini 2" frame.

I wanted a frame without prop guards to get improved performance when there is a slight breeze, so I moved everything to a new frame. I used nuts and vibration damper/spacers to raise the height of the board so that I don't have to desolder the motor wire sockets and directly solder the wire. The gaps in the frame helped; I didn't have to raise the board much.

Finally used a small square battery grip and rubber band to hold the battery.

I am still flying with 40mm propellors. I recently got 2" props and hope to try them out.

Hi what's your flight duration? I get about 2 minutes on a similar setup.

I haven't tried it with 2" props yet. I got a few Gemfan 2020 recently, but I haven't flown with them yet.
While it is faster and aggressive than just cruising, as a newbie, I don't think my acro flying would be considered that aggressive. I get almost 4 minutes the way I fly with BetaFPV 450mA BT 2.0 batteries.

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..
