So the name comes originally from whoever is selling the conversion kit on Ali Express.
This is really just a Mobula 7 conversion to another frame. Well... of course I couldn't resist to paint it : )
I also re-soldered some wires, since I didn't like the cable management and did some other minor adjustments.
... thinking about changing the camera, not because I don't like the mobula cam, but more due to how I can mount it in this weird frame.
Just gave it a hover and quick indoor testflight. Flies ok, but feels a little bit on the heavier side with 450mAh 2S LiPos...gonna look for something lighter and adjust the tune, as it's not too heavy, gonna weigh later, but for now it looks pretty cool.

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..

Im actually interested in those ducts cause they look pretty light. Was looking for something like it for a CF 75 frame I'm working on rn. Do you happen to know how heavy the ducts are?
Yes, you're in luck, I actually bought two of these and haven't built the second one yet...still debating motors as the weight was a bit more than I hoped for. The ducts weigh around 4.8 grams
Actually, yeah 4.8g is hefty but I have a feeling its alot stiffer than a cut down mobula 7 V4 or meteor 75 frame (cut down to just the ducts and the fc holes) which I found to be 3.51g.
Thanks for taking the time to weigh it! appreciate it and kinda wanna buy one soon to test it out on the frame I'm making. I don't have a rotorbuilds article about it yet but if you want to check it out heres a YT short about it: https://youtube.com/shorts/8O8Gxkxg4BQ?si=jUnEfNGT1nUZSQh1
yo, that is so cool
are you selling those frames?
I plan to but likely just here locally in the Philippines. If you like my frame I suggest Spezilover's Quatro frame (https://rotorbuilds.com/build/32016) as its similar to mine but he can ship internationally. I might partner up with him soon so he can sell my frames too but thats not yet a sure thing.
Honestly this format works with any carbon fiber frame and any ducts as long as they have the same wheelbase and FC mounting holes. The only thing my Hachidorrii V2 frame has above other similar frames is resonance characteristics being a little better and less weight.
I can send you a DXF file if you want to try it out if you have a way to cnc CF
Yes, that guy's page is also great for tinies, It's like his specialty. If you get your stuff in his shop I'll definitely support... cause I want that frame 😁
I wish I had some access to a sweet CNC mill...I used to be able to use the one at my local community college, but I haven't taken a class since before CORONA...so much has changed. But hey, now we're all 3D printing, which is also cool
