This was my first build started in June 2021. Since I have a 3D printer I was able to design and print a few parts such as the camera mounts and LED Buzzer board mount. The first FC stack was a NBD Hive 16x16 but the ESC burned up on the second test flight so I upgraded the whole stack to the GEPRC Stable Pro F7. Jack was rebuilt about 3 or 4 times because every time an arm broke I'd have to get a whole new frame. I have retired Jack due to the fragile arms and the inability to replace arms without fully disasseble/reassemble the entire quad. Before retirement, Jack got my leg one good time as seen in the photos. Not bad for a 2.5".

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..
