I thought the X12 board was a potential cheat code for a 1-2S toothpick, until I read some warnings about trying to remove the motor plugs, thus the tangle of soldered-on pigtails. Heavier than it should be. Needs a better antenna setup; the location of the u.fl port--right up front under the camera plug-- makes it a challenge. Speaking of camera plug, I sure wish it didn't face outward. I also wish the USB port didn't face up (it's easiest to connect if you unplug the camera first). Maybe Happymodel should make something like this specifically for toothpick builders.
I only got it out for two packs before the snow started, but it was flying nicely with UAVTech's toothpick preset.

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.
