Idk green and gold looked posh. Tpu cost a fortune but hope y'all like it :).

Opinions as always (some are just copy/pastes from past builds but it's just nice to give an opinion anyway):

Fouride Frame: It was just a really nice frame (I got the 5" one) and looked unique but also well made. Its a true __ to put together and required a bit of sanding on the central standoff hole, but all in all a sensationally well designed frame. Carbon is all chamfered too contrary to the pictures showing it to be straight.

Goku GN745 and HM600: I got these for £70 on banggood (yeah I know...) and the f745 chip, 40a of power and a 600mw vtx seemed a good deal. The board is easy to solder to and comes with black wiring and xt60 (which is cool) and yeah: its good. I got a bit of magic smoke funnily enough this build but nothing seems broken... All works.

Caddx Ant: Nice cam, not the greatest image but completely passable and honestly just a good cheapo thing to throw on a quad/wing if you need a cheap cam (it sounds obvious, I know). Would be nice to have a full case version to make mounting easier but it's about $12.50 on TBS so who cares?

Toka 2004 2900kv: Really nice looks, quality, packaging etc. Wire is really thin which is good for weight saving; T mount too. I believe these are actually unibell but someone said something to the contrary before... in any case they are really nice.

Thanks for viewing folks!

It's gorgeous.. What brand and color tpu is that? I haven't seen that color of green in tpu before. Super clean looking! I bet it's a ripper with those motors. I have the exact same build, but digital and with the fpvcycle 2203 3450kv, and it's a screamer on 4s. I just stole those motors for a 5" toothfairy 2 though, so I may throw some 2004's on. Love the 4" platform!

The TPU is Leoplas Emerald green :) It rips hard, yeah! I'm converting my 5 inch fouride to a 4 incher soon so will have the exact same power setup as you!

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..
