This is my next upgrade to my first quad. Because there were so many changes I decided to create a new profile build. This uses many of the same parts from my build at https://rotorbuilds.com/build/26187, but upgrades includes the T-Motor 722 Pro FC to take advantage of the DJI port, ExpressLRS and new Beaver Frame. In order to take advantage of the sbus, from this FC, I reversed the TX and RX ports for URART 5 in Betaflight CLI console. I also created a new wiring harness for the VTX, listed below, to connect to the DJI port. Everything else worked as expected. I created custom TPU part for the quad, and they are listed below. I'm deciding if a bumper is needed. I'll decide after it's maden flight. :-)

Great looking build, I'm wanting to switch from the Apex frame to this. How did you mount the HDZero vtx, I see a 3d print under it. Is that a 20x20 to 30x30 print? I didn't think this had a 30x30 hole pattern in the front.
Hi, nice & clean build 👍
How did you attach the standoffs in the middle of the base plate? You had to remove the press nuts, right? Then the holes are bigger than the screw though, did you use some kind of washers to fill the gap?

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..

Looks sweet. Very neat - Mate - what are the weights (no battery;with batt; with batt+gopro)?
Also how does the Foxeer Digi3 compre to the Runcam Micro v2 sold by HDZero?
Thanks. 495oz no battery, 711oz with battery, 838oz with GoPro 8.
The Runcam Micro v2 is a better camera and also supports 1080p/30 and the CADDX 1.6MM Polar HD lens will get rid of the fisheye when in 1080p/30.
noted thanks
495oz is that ozzie for 495grams?
