The frame is a custom 4mm 3" Stretch X frame i made from Armattan productions. It was inspired by the Diatone crusader. I wanted a stretch X version with a little more customization. If you have any interest in the frame let me know in the comments.

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..

First, think you need to correct the $ for motors tab.. "pretty expensive build" Nice build! I'm interested in that frame & would like to know "How's it fly" & overall any info please. Thanks
Thanks for the response! I fixed the tabs so the price is right on now minus the frame. I've only put 4 batteries through it so far but it flew extremely well, i might post some footage on YouTube soon. The only negative was that It was very sensitive to where i strapped the battery on in terms on being balanced. Such that if i put the battery too far back, the front of the quad would lift during punch outs (like the i term was too low) or act like a counterweight during flips . However after moving the battery up a tad it fixed the issue but is certainly something that you would have to be aware of. I think that's probably normal since the battery is 1/3 of the weight on the entire build.
The frame consists of 3 pieces, bottom plate, top plate and rear VTX mount. I don't currently have in public yet but with some feedback i might consider making it available. I haven't done weight yet but i will be on the heavier side since its a 4 mm frame. I know that's thick but it allows me to run 0 filter and is so snappy and smooth. It's a stretch X design so it's made for racing, i'll try and post more info this weekend on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/WoooSaaaW)
