Got around to putting together a 5” digital long range quadcopter capable of long flight times, mild freestyle flying & the ability to carry a Stripped down (naked) gopro camera.
Frame design by Dave_C FPV carbon fiber cut by @cncmadness. You can save your self about $30 dollars by having CNC madness cut the frame and printing the tpu parts yourself as they are available on thingiverse. I highly recommend their services for your cnc frame cuts, Nick & his team have excellent customer service & quality is legit!

Sd_AE86 “Mud flap lady” gopro mount
Zohd LION 18650 4s 3500mah battery
HQ 5x2x3 durable T-mount propellers
Had to rotate the Flywoo F722hd aio 270 degrees as although its a 20x20 mounting pattern board, it runs into the middle stand offs. So accessing the usb port a bit of a hassleas the camera stand offs have to be removed when programming.
Made a side Xt-60 mount as to keep the battery leads out of the proppeller arc and to avoid vibrating against the naked gopro in flight.
To go with the naked gopro, designed a naked mudflap lady logo on the holder that sits at about 25 degrees and is slightly forward of the finger mount to avoid contact with the 18650 4s battery pack.
Suprisingly this thing is actually a quick cruiser, gets about 8-9minutes with a 1500 4s lipo & about 18minutes with a 4s 3500mah lion pack slow flying. Dont expect spectacular punch outs or acro with the lion Packs they sag more than a nagging housewife making tik toks.

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..
