Originaly KingKong188 frame with DYS 1306 motors. I managed to fry the pdb twice and decided to go on with different frame with separate pdb.
At the first build attempt I also had WS2812 LEDs but I did not managed to get them working so I removed them.
The other thing that bugged me was the included buzzer on pdb. When I connected it on motor 6 and remapped resource in betaflight suddenly my motors 3 and 4 stopped working properly. I had to change protocol to PWM but then I did not like how the quad flied (actually it barely flied. I had to do some PID tunning). So after all I decided not to use it. Reverted the config back to Onehost125 and now it flies very well with default PIDs.
After initial build with DYS 1306 motors and first hard crash (plastic standoffs exploded because I used plastic screws, don't know why) and after reading some Oscarliang article about motor/propeller combination I decided to buy BR1806 motors. They are fine but the end of the shaft with C/E clip did not fit in to the frame hole so had to use file to make this hole little bigger.
I managed to put all together. I am using aluminum standoffs now, Gemfam 4045BN ABS props and it reacts as I expect.
Learned couple of new things during this build (flashing ESCs, setting up Micro MinimOSD). So pretty happy after all.
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..
