I wanted to get into HDZero ever since I started racing in my local MultiGP chapter. When I saw a video from Darren of EveryThing Micro FPV come up with this lightweight 5" I had to build one and try HDZero for the first time with the new Whoop Lite VTX. I went with his specs for 6S. 2105 1850KV RCinpower motors and 650mah 6s packs. The tune that I went with is the Karate "Viper Lite" Race 5" Tune and she flys phenomenal. All I can say is thank you Darren and ledrone.club mutirotors for coming up with this awesome lightweight 5" racing frame. I can't wait to ripp it during this weekends race. Enjoy.

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 a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
