This is my first 7-inch build. I wanted to give Chris Rosser's frame and tune a try so, I got this AOS 7 Evo frame. My only criticism of the frame is the top plate SMA mount holes that if used, don't allow bigger (wide) battery. Using a TPU part to fix the SMA connectors to the frame at the standoffs makes more sense to me (thingiverse.com/thing:5605112). My chosen GPS module did not fit into any of the 3D prints I could find, so I had to do a remix to fit the frame and gps. Otherwise, very easy build. The frame has lots of room to work with. The all up weight: 1.45kg (GoPro 12, 6s2p 18650 pack)
On the maiden flight, I was blown away by how smooth and fast it is. The AOS 7 PID tune and filters supplied by Chris are perfect. I'm very impressed with the frame and overall build.
Here's a quick video of the 2nd flight:
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..

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..
