Fast little backyard flyer, size 130mm
This is my third build, first was a 250mm and second that's still partly unfinished is a 210mm. This is meant to be flown in backyard or small parks.
About the parts chosen:
I Tried to keep the build somewhat light, but wanted still some extras like a buzzer and LEDs (as my kids like to watch when flying). I usually buy a pretty cheap, but sturdy frame (so that I can buy a spare). Wanted to try an "all-in-one" fc, Furious FPV Kombini is a pdb+fc, super easy to build and well documented so no problems in connections. Tough solderpads are quite close to another, so that took some extra time. ESC's, motors and fpv camera are pretty standard and common choises. I decided to take 3300kv motors (instead of 4000kv) as I've used smaller kv's before, and they usually works better if the build ain't the most lightest (as this is not). I had the Swift fpv camera as a spare, and wanted an OSD, so when choosing one, decided to go with FuriousFPV piggy (as the kombini supports it super easily). The receiver is also FuriousFPV, it's super small, and the range (1km) shouldn't be an issue. Batteries are what they are, they are cheap, and serves my purposes well.
Some thoughts and notes after first flight
Some thoughts after a while
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..

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..
