I needed a rugged build that could sport the HD cam for a trip. My first swing at a true X frame. I'm surprised the Goby isn't more popular, it's well designed, sturdy and inexpensive. Plus that warranty doesn't hurt. It is a little tight, however, so you have to be pretty frugal with component placement. Initial flights have been great, though I've only run a few packs through to get a halfway decent tune. The 2206/RG20a/DAL tri's pull like mad, this thing is going to be a lot of fun. More (and better, sorry) pictures and footage to come!

How solid is that Session on there? I can imagine a little wiggle on those zip ties if they aren't tight enough. BTW, I think your autocorrect did a number on your build name.

Ah yeah, good call. I didn't see that.

Pretty stable, that 3m tape can hold quite a bit.

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.

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..
