Rekon 7 - 8 inch Cruiser
My second conversion of a Rekon 7 to 8 inch to test the new DJI O4 Pro :) It just remains a compact frame that has potential.
True to the motto: Rudie's leftover ramp, utilize FPV parts.
The normal frame is more suitable than the PRO version, even if you only want to convert to 7.5 inches.
I have also converted the DJI Goggle 3 to an external battery (Battery Mod)
My components:
Rekon 7" LR frame not PRO version
(converted to 8 inch with own sidebars supports)
SpeedyBee F405 V4+50A ESC
Emax Eco 2 2807 1700 Kv (4s) motors
HQ 7,5x4,6x3 (currently being tested) or 8x4x3 propeller
HGLRC M100 mini GPS
DJI O4 Pro
Flown with 18650 or 21700 Liion cells.
I will add technical data

General best tip:
Shield the cable from the GPS module. I previously had severe problems (indifferences) with the Caddx Vista/ o3 and rarely to hardly any GPS lock. I shielded the signal cable RX+TX AND the ground+5V cable and soldered each separately to ground. Since then I have very fast GPS lock with >20 satellites and the warm start is just top < 5s.
PID tuning:
7" preset from UAVTech, which I have refined and adapted for Betaflight 4.6. Flies well with it, but needs further refinement as my setup is from my Rekon 8 6s-version.
Conversion DJI Goggle 3 to external battery:
->
Goggle 3 external battery mod
Here's a new conversion for the DJI Goggle 3 to an external battery. This allows you to use a different headband.
And another modification: now the cable no longer bothers my face.
New position for antenna 2 + new foldable Gemfan 8041 ;) and GPS with MAG for testing.
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..
